EnerSys (NYSE: ENS), the global leader in stored energy solutions for industrial applications, announced that its subsidiary, Purcell  Systems, Inc., was named among the recipients of the "Best Places to Work Inland Northwest" award. This is the third consecutive year that Purcell Systems, Inc. earned this recognition. 

"Receiving this award for the third year in a row demonstrates that our culture of open communication, inclusion and empowerment delivers results," said Dwayne Gray, plant manager. "Because we create a collegial environment for our employees, we maintain a high level of performance and continuous improvement. When employees are respected, they are better equipped to provide superior service to our customers."

Best Companies Group managed the overall registration and survey process, analyzed the data and determined the final rankings. All award recipients were announced in the Journal of Business, a regional business newspaper. 

In its fifth year, the survey-based awards program was designed to identify, recognize and honor the companies in the Inland Northwest that best benefit the region's economy, workforce and businesses. The program is for businesses located in Spokane, Pend Oreille and Stevens counties in Washington and Kootenai and Bonner counties in Idaho. 

As with last year's award, Purcell Systems, Inc. was named among the top 36 businesses in the Inland Northwest region. Located in Spokane Valley, Washington, the company designs and manufactures thermally managed modular outdoor electronic equipment enclosures. Its product solutions provide equipment mounting space, thermal management, copper and fiber cable management, and power and battery backup to telecommunications, cable/Multiple System Operator (MSO), energy/utility, land mobile radio, transportation and U.S. government/military customers. Designed for telecommunications outside plant use, the enclosures enable substantial savings of time, labor, space, and capital and operational expenses, compared with prefabricated buildings and shelters. 

Companies from across the region participated in a two-part survey to determine which would be recognized with a "Best Places to Work Inland Northwest" award. The first part consisted of evaluating each nominated company's workplace policies, practices, philosophy, systems and demographics. The second part consisted of an employee survey to measure the employee experience. The combined scores determined the top companies and the final ranking. 

The list-making companies were honored at a virtual awards ceremony on October 7, 2020. The rankings are published in the October 8 issue of the Journal of Business. For more information on the Best Places to Work Inland Northwest program, visit  BestPlacestoWorkINW.com.
