Malco Tools, Inc., the nation’s leading manufacturer of high-quality, American-made tools for professional use, has been named a 2019 Top Workplace in Minnesota by the Star Tribune.
Top Workplaces recognizes the most progressive companies in Minnesota based on employee opinions, measuring engagement, organizational health and satisfaction. The analysis included responses from over 140,000 employees at Minnesota public, private and nonprofit organizations.
“We are grateful to be recognized as a Top Workplace in Minnesota by the Star Tribune for a second time,” said Mardon Quandt, Malco president and CEO. “With a focus on safety, quality and innovation, our employee owners play a significant role in securing this title.”
The results of the Star Tribune Top Workplaces are based on survey information collected by Energage, an independent employee engagement company. To qualify for the Star Tribune Top Workplaces, a company must have more than 50 employees in Minnesota. Over 2,000 companies were invited to participate.
“The companies in the Star Tribune Top Workplaces deserve high praise for creating the very best work environments in the state of Minnesota,” said Star Tribune publisher Michael J. Klingensmith. “My congratulations to each of these exceptional companies.”
Malco is an employee-owned Specific Benefit Corporation in the state of Minnesota with nearly 70 years of history in the tool manufacturing industry. Malco was also recently recognized with a 2018 Governor’s Safety Award by the Minnesota Safety Council for its commitment to creating a safe and healthy work environment for its employee-owners.
