IssueTrak Again Named to Best Places to Work in Hampton Roads

VIRGINIA BEACH, Va., July 21, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- IssueTrak, an internationally recognized leader in issue tracking, help desk and customer support software, has been recognized for the second year in a row as one of the best places to work in Hampton Roads by Inside Business, the Hampton Roads Business Journal. IssueTrak was an honoree in the Small Business category.

"We are delighted to be recognized for a second time as a Best Place to Work," said Hank Luhring, CEO of IssueTrak. "Last year we were cited for our Nerf Gun Wars and other fun events. This year the focus was on the many volunteer activities we sponsor. We are proud that our employees are so involved in giving back to the community – we have wonderful people working here and we will continue to support them as they help others."

All full-time IssueTrak employees are allowed to spend two paid days a year volunteering at the nonprofit of their choice. Employees are also encouraged to support each other in their choice of volunteer activities and fundraisers.

At a corporate level, in 2010 IssueTrak was the event sponsor for the ForKids auction, participated in the United Way Day of Caring at a local elementary school, contributed to Clean the Bay at the Norfolk Zoo, had a team in the annual Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Run for the Cure, participated in several canned food drive initiatives with the Food Bank of South Hampton Roads, and adopted a family in need during the holiday season.

"Our corporate culture has a fundamental principle of inspiring success both on a professional and personal level," said Deb Gillies, human resources manager of IssueTrak.

The Best Places to Work award honors companies that go above and beyond to create a positive working environment for their employees. Companies must submit information about their culture, annual turnover, employee satisfaction, fair and equitable treatment, compensation, benefits, and employee training opportunities. The judging is based in part on an online survey that employees complete. Now in its ninth year, the award is sponsored by Inside Business, The Hampton Roads Business Journal.
