Alaska Small Business Development Center lands spot on Outside's Best Places to Work
by Michelle Saport |
The Alaska Small Business Development Center, part of the UAA Business Enterprise Institute, landed the 38th spot on Outside magazine's 100 Best Places to Work list.
What makes the Alaska Small Business Development Center a great place to work? "This 30-person nonprofit offers flexible hours, good health care, and great annual leave. Employees enjoy 13 paid holidays and 18 days of paid time off when they start with the company. The company operates within the university system, which means employees accrue more annual paid days off for every year they stay with the company."
The other Alaska employer to make the list was Spawn Ideas at #63. Among the company's perks: "Staff hold outdoor meetings in a nearby park that overlooks Cook Inlet and take part in weekly hikes up nearby Flattop Mountain."
Outside publishes the Best Places to Work list annually, recognizing exemplary companies that make employee health and happiness a point of pride. To be considered, companies must apply and undergo an assessment of company policies, practices, benefits and demographics.
