Belt Technologies, manufacturer of industry-leading PureSteel® custom metal belt conveyor solutions, has been Great Place to Work-Certified™ for the second year in a row. Great Place to Work® is the global authority on workplace culture, employee experience and leadership behaviors proven to deliver market-leading revenue and increased innovation. The prestigious award is based entirely on what current employees say about their experience working at Belt.
“We are excited to have again earned this designation, as we have an ongoing commitment to ensure our employees feel valued, safe and engaged,” said Denis Gagnon Jr., chief executive officer at Belt Technologies. “We earned high marks across the board. For example, 100 percent of our employees agreed that they were made to feel welcome when they joined us, a standard we want to uphold. We also received valuable feedback on areas where we can still improve.”
Great Place To Work Certification recognizes employers who create outstanding employee experiences. Becoming certified is a two-step process that includes surveying employees and completing a questionnaire about the company’s workforce dynamics, policies, environmental stewardship and community engagement.
In order to gain certification, a business needs to score a minimum of 65 percent on its evaluation. The average score for a company evaluation is 57 percent. Belt achieved a score of 93 percent.
“Great Place To Work Certification is a highly coveted achievement that requires consistent and intentional dedication to the overall employee experience,” says Sarah Lewis-Kulin, vice president of global recognition at Great Place To Work. “By successfully earning this recognition, it is evident that Belt Technologies stands out as one of the top companies to work for, providing a great workplace environment for its employees.”
Belt’s comprehensive benefit package includes employer-assisted health, dental and long-term disability plans; group life, accidental death and short-term disability plans at no cost to employees; and a 401k plan with four percent company match. The company is also a proud supporter of local causes such as Link to Libraries and United Way of Pioneer Valley.

Because employee feedback and independent analysis determine the scores, certification helps job seekers identify companies that genuinely offer a great company culture and gives employers a recruiting advantage by providing a globally recognized and research-backed verification of great employee experience.
