ALBANY, N.Y., Jan. 27, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CDPHP has once again earned the distinction as one of the best large companies to work for in New York. This is the eighth consecutive year that the Albany-based not-for-profit health plan has been named to the list by the Best Companies Group, in conjunction with the New York State Society of Human Resource Management.
The Best Companies to Work for in New York award is based on the company's workplace policies, systems, and practices, as well as a survey, which was open to all employees, that measures employee engagement.
CDPHP employees enjoy comprehensive and flexible benefits, including an on-site gym with a full-time fitness specialist, an on-site cafeteria, tuition reimbursement, leadership development, worksite wellness programs, access to an on-site farmers' market, and the ability to pursue community service activities.
"At CDPHP, our goal is to create a work environment that not only encourages personal and professional development, but also offers a work-life balance. By doing so, we have happier, more productive employees, and that translates to better service for our members," said John D. Bennett, MD, president and CEO, CDPHP.
CDPHP will be honored at an awards dinner in Albany on May 3, where final rankings will be announced. For more information on the Best Companies to Work for in New York awards program, visit www.BestCompaniesNY.com.
