The award-winning restaurant concept focuses on people development, engaging its workforce around a strong sense of purpose and team. Through its collaboration with ADP, First Watch was able to honor that commitment during the pandemic by leveraging easy access to employee information, which its leaders used to connect with all furloughed employees on a weekly basis. With this approach, they were able to maintain trust and connection, share Company updates such as information on its new emergency employee assistance fund, and most importantly, let each employee know how much they were valued. The Company also leverages the ADP Mobile Solutions app to stay connected to its extensive hourly population on an ongoing basis, regularly posting employee resources and engaging content.

Committed to making a positive impact, the company established policies on Board Diversity and Employee Diversity and Opportunity, implemented a diverse talent referral program, launched a Diversity and Inclusion Mentoring Program, and introduced 12 teammate resource groups that are designed to inspire everyday respect, champion diverse perspectives, and empower its workforce to speak out against discrimination and injustice.

Flexible packaging provider ProAmpac fosters an entrepreneurial spirit, encouraging its employees to think big in envisioning new ways to serve its customers.

To prevent any obstacles to innovation, ProAmpac worked with ADP to turn a lengthy hiring process during the pandemic into a seamless, real-time experience through ADP's recruiting system. With visibility into its talent management, ProAmpac was able to attract great talent and accelerate performance.

Teva additionally implemented ADP's Return to Workplace solution to track vaccination status and help keep onsite employees safe in the manufacturing facilities and labs. By continually listening to the needs of its workforce, Teva has continued to engage its people in caring for each other and their patients.

This award features an organization that has demonstrated incredible organizational agility in the changing world of work. Provider of assisted living, independent living, memory care and skilled nursing services, Sinceri Senior Living has remained focused on ensuring its residents receive the best care possible.
