MARCUS JEWISH COMMUNITY CENTER OF ATLANTA SELECTED AS ONE OF THE ATLANTA JOURNAL CONSTITUTIONS TOP 100 WORKPLACES FOR THIRD CONSECUTIVE YEAR

The Marcus Jewish Community Center of Atlanta (MJCCA) is pleased to announce that it has been selected as one of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution “Top 100 Workplaces” for the third consecutive year.

The “Top Workplaces” are determined solely on employee feedback. The employee survey is conducted by WorkplaceDynamics, LLP, a leading research firm on organizational health and employee engagement. This year, the MJCCA ranked 19th in the mid-size category.

The MJCCA is a secular, pluralistic, non-profit organization with approximately 250 full- and part-time employees. For more than 100 years, it has been committed to enhancing the quality of lives of its employees and the community at large. Programs for employees include dedicated fitness and health classes, including “The Biggest Loser Challenge” and “FitLine”; morale-boosting events such as annual talent shows, baking contests, employee get-togethers, and staff retreats; professional development opportunities; and a monthly “Customer Service Award” where employees are recognized for both their internal and external customer service. The Center also offers extremely competitive health and welfare packages and a 403B match.

“To receive this award for the third year signifies that we are doing something right in the eyes of our staff, the lifeblood of our organization. It means all the more to us because this honor comes from them. We are committed to providing our staff with a professional, vibrant workplace -- one where their needs and the needs of their families are consistently met,” said Gail Luxenberg, CEO and executive director of the MJCCA.

“Many of our staff have met their spouses here; have sent their children to our preschools, summer camps, and after-school programs; and have sought respite care for family members in our adult day services program. As an organization that caters to families, the JCC staff is just that – the ultimate family.”

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution published the complete list of “Top Workplaces” on March 23. For more information about the “Top Workplaces” lists and WorkplaceDynamics, please visit www.topworkplaces.com and www.workplacedynamics.com.
