AccountingWEB Searching for the "Fittest Accounting Firms" in the Country

Posted by AccountingWEB on 05/02/2011 - 17:14

Columbus, OH (April 29, 2011) - AccountingWEB, the leading online community for accountants, announces the search for the "Fittest Accounting Firms" in the country. Coming off the success of "Your Daily Dose of Workplace Fitness," an e-newsletter with fitness and nutrition tips sent to accounting professionals each day during this past busy season, the popular community for accounting professionals aims to find out what firms do to help drive employee wellness.

The Fittest Accounting Firms is a ten-minute online survey that asks members of the profession to provide information about how their firm promotes wellness and fitness, including on-site workout facilities, office food options, team sports, reimbursement programs, and methods of tracking progress using metrics. Accountants love numbers, right?

Gail Perry, Sift Media editor-in-chief, commented, "We've had fun all spring breaking up our busy days with quick exercises to help relieve stress and stay focused. Now it's time to kick it up a notch and find out which firms are truly embracing fitness and wellness for their employees."

AccountingWEB will award the "Fittest Accounting Firms" in three categories based on the number of employees: Small Firm, Medium Firm, and Large Firm. In addition, every firm that completes the survey will be entered in a drawing to win a copy of "The 10-Minute Total Body Breakthrough" by Sean Foy to keep as a fitness reference manual.

More information on Workplace Fitness and a link to the survey can be found here: http://www.accountingweb.com/topic/fitness. The survey and contest run through June 15th. Winners will be announced in August.

Voice of the Editor
Results of a new survey show that most employees (61%) who receive a satisfactory benefits package from their employers are likely to have a strong sense of loyalty to those employers. Does that mean that providing good benefits is a good way to ensure employee loyalty (certainly a concern in an iffy job market), or is there a deeper meaning?
