Recognizing Exceptional Workplaces in Colorado
For the 15th consecutive year, the Denver Post is set to celebrate the exemplary workplace culture present in the state of Colorado through its Top Workplaces 2026 initiative. This annual recognition underscores the importance of workplaces that prioritize employee well-being and engagement, inviting anyone to nominate deserving employers by the October 31 deadline.
Why Nominate a Top Workplace?
A great workplace is more than just a job; it’s a community where employees feel valued and inspired. Whether a business is public, private, nonprofit, or governmental, any organization with 50 or more employees may be eligible for the award. This inclusivity allows for a diverse representation of what makes a workplace stand out in a state as vibrant as Colorado.
Evaluating Workplace Excellence
To qualify as a Top Workplace, nominees undergo a thorough evaluation process that includes a brief 26-question survey administered to employees. Conducted by Energage, a recognized research partner, this survey seeks feedback and insights directly from team members, reflecting the true workplace culture. Following the survey cycle, the top 150 workplaces will be honored in spring 2026 based on the responses collected.
The Importance of a People-First Approach
Celebrating companies that foster a people-centric approach is vital; it creates a ripple effect that encourages other organizations to reevaluate their own cultures. As Eric Rubino, CEO of Energage, states, "Earning a Top Workplaces award is a celebration of excellence." It reinforces the idea that workplaces recognized for their culture often see enhanced employee satisfaction and business success.
