Hammer Packaging named Best of the Best

Created to specifically honor printing companies that provide a superior work environment, the Best Workplace in the Americas program is overseen by a panel of respected HR professionals with decades of experience in the graphic arts industry.

Applicants in 2013 were judged on eight criteria: management practices, work environment, training and development opportunities, financial security, workplace health and safety, work-life balance, recognition and rewards, and health and wellness programs.

James E. Hammer, president and chief executive officer of Hammer Packaging, said: ‘It is an honor achieving the highest ranking in this competition by the industry as a company that offers a superior workplace. 

‘It recognizes that we develop our business strategies with a focus on our people to ensure that we promote a positive and developmental culture. Our associates are Hammer’s most important asset.’
