LAMMICO named Top Workplace for ninth straight year thanks to consistent values and employee growth

LAMMICO has been named a Top Workplace for nine consecutive years, but the recognition hasn't lost its meaning.

"We are honored and humbled each time because it means we continue to fulfill our responsibilities to our employees," said Lisa Barber, VP of Administration and Human Resources. "If we have employees who are happy, dedicated and hardworking, they are going to service our customers in the same way."

Barber said LAMMICO emphasizes its values of integrity, fairness, dignity, respect, relationship-building, service and overall excellence by showcasing them in the office and in employee materials. "We've always had a low turnover rate and I think it goes back to our values," Barber said. "It's a reciprocal relationship. Employees feel like management exemplifies those values. As a result, employees bring their best to their roles every day.

When hiring, LAMMICO looks for people with a strong work ethic who strive for excellence and treat others with dignity and respect. Once the new employee is on board, there is an emphasis on building external and internal relationships. In addition to our internal relationships, we have strong ties in the community, and are very active in fundraising for several charitable organizations, including the American Heart Association and the American Cancer Society.

LAMMICO supports employee growth in a variety of ways. The company subscribes to LinkedIn Learning so that employees can take courses that align with their role and their goals. "We've done training on soft skills like communication and project management. This summer, we'll have a workshop on team building for all employees and managers," Barber said. "If employees need licenses or certifications, we subsidize that cost. The support that LAMMICO provides toward employee growth is something that I think they really appreciate."
