Atlas Oil Company, Taylor MI, was recognized as one of the Achievers 50 Most Engaged Workplaces in the United States. This annual award recognizes top employers that display leadership and innovation in engaging their workplaces.

"The Achievers 50 Most Engaged Workplaces understand that employee engagement is not just a buzz word, but that engaged employees provide businesses with a unique competitive advantage,” said Achievers Chief Executive Officer Patrick D Quirk. “Companies that focus on employee success have better engagement and alignment with business objectives and company values. These companies serve as role models for other businesses to engage their own employees and build success."

Michael Evans, president and chief operating officer of Atlas Oil Co, said: "Atlas has experienced a 25% growth rate year-over-year. This growth didn't happen by accident. Our Atlas team members have a passion for this business and they work hard every day to exceed our customers' expectations. We are proud to be able to attract high caliber talent to the company and our employee engagement is a key component in our recruiting efforts."

The Achievers 50 Most Engaged Workplaces Awards panel of judges evaluated each applicant based on the Eight Elements of Employee Engagement: Communication, Leadership, Culture, Rewards & Recognition, Professional & Personal Growth, Accountability & Performance, Vision & Values and Corporate Social Responsibility.

The panel of 14 judges included various academics and thought leaders on employee engagement, and included representation from organizations such as the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM), Human Resources Professionals Association (HRPA), and Human Capital Institute (HCI) and Northern California HR Association.

Atlas Oil will be honored alongside other recipients of the Achievers 50 Most Engaged Workplaces Award at the awards gala on April 2 in San Francisco CA.
