Integrity Applications Incorporated (IAI) announced today that it has been named one of Washingtonian magazine’s 2009 Great Places to Work in the Washington DC metro area.    The announcement is featured in the November 2009 issue of Washingtonian magazine. 

This year's list of winning workplaces was chosen on the basis of such measures as competitive pay and benefits, challenging and interesting work, great work-life balance, opportunities to learn and grow, financial stability, commitment to charity and community and the recognition and respect given employees.   IAI is among 50 top Washington DC metro area employers who were recognized with this honor.

"Our employees and their commitment to the customer’s mission success have made IAI a successful and growing company," said Joseph L. Brickey, Chairman and CEO of IAI.  “We’ve always known that IAI has great people and a winning success formula.    It is very rewarding when IAI’s great people and winning success formula are acknowledged by a respected publication such as Washingtonian magazine.”    

This is the sixth time Washingtonian magazine has chosen Great Places to Work in the Washington, DC metro area.  The feature dates back to 1999; it is published every other year.   Winners were chosen after a panel of editors and writers reviewed more than 200 companies and more than 13,000 employee surveys.    The final determinations relied heavily on the scores given by a company's employees. 

This is the third consecutive time that IAI has applied and appeared on Washingtonian magazine’s Great Places to Work list and the third top tier employer award that IAI has received in 2009.  IAI was nationally recognized in June 2009 by The Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) together with The Great Places to Work Institute, Inc. (GPTW) as one of the “50 Best Small & Medium Companies to Work for in America”.   IAI was the number 4 ranked medium-sized company.   IAI was also recognized in May 2009 by the San Diego Business Journal as the Number One Best Place to Work in San Diego in the small company category.
