BOCA RATON, Fla.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Bluegreen
Vacations Corporation, a leading vacation ownership company, has
been named among the top 10 large workplaces in South Florida by the South
Florida Sun Sentinel. With corporate headquarters in Boca Raton, FL;
Orlando, FL; and Indianapolis, IN, Bluegreen’s more than 5,700
associates (554 are based in South Florida) present travelers with the
opportunity to explore 69 resorts located across 40 destinations
throughout the U.S. and Caribbean, spanning the best beaches, cities and
cultural meccas, as well as the natural splendor of the great outdoors.
“This recognition is especially meaningful because it’s coming from our
own associates’ feedback,” said Justin Taylor, Executive Vice President
and Chief Human Resources Officer of Bluegreen Vacations. “Their
commitment to excellence is what differentiates the Bluegreen experience
for our owners and guests. Our associates are the key to our success,
and we’re equally committed to delivering the best experience for them
by fostering a positive culture of professional and personal growth and
happiness.”
This is the fifth year the Sun Sentinel partnered with
Philadelphia-based Energage to determine South Florida’s Top Workplaces.
The results are based solely on a scientific employee survey process.
The employee engagement survey of 24 questions gathered responses
regarding issues relating to workplace culture:
- Alignment — where the company is headed, its values and cooperation
- Connection — employees feel appreciated and their work is meaningful
-
Effectiveness — doing things efficiently and well, sharing different
viewpoints, and encouraging new ideas - My Manager — cares about concerns and helps employees develop
- Engagement — motivation, retention and recruiting
- Leadership — confidence in company leaders
- The Basics — pay, benefits, flexibility, training and expectations
In addition to competitive salaries, a comprehensive benefits package
and professional development programs, Bluegreen Vacations celebrates
its associates with discount programs that provide eligible employees
with an opportunity to vacation at company resorts or other destinations
through an exchange program. Outside the office and resort destinations,
associates play a significant role in the company’s robust corporate
social responsibility initiatives, including participating in 16 hours
of paid volunteer time off (VTO) and giving back to select charities via
company directed volunteer opportunities and payroll deductions.
