Sundance Vacations Identified as One of the 2010 Best Places to Work in Pennsylvania

WILKES-BARRE, PA–(Marketwire – September 7, 2010) –  Sundance Vacations was recently named one of the Best Places to Work in PA for the fourth consecutive year in a row. Hundreds of employees anonymously participated in the survey process. Last year in the 2009 Best Places to Work in PA program, Sundance Vacations finished among the top 30 in the statewide employee poll for large-sized companies (251 or more employees).

This survey and awards program was designed to identify, recognize and honor the best places to be employed in Pennsylvania, benefiting the state’s economy, its workforce and businesses. To be considered for participation, companies had to fulfill the following eligibility requirements:

• Have at least 25 employees in Pennsylvania;
• Be a for-profit or not-for-profit business;
• Be a publicly or privately held business;
• Have a facility in Pennsylvania; and
• Be in good standing with Commonwealth agencies under the Governor’s jurisdiction.

The combined score of a two-part process determined the 100 Best Places to Work in PA. The first part of this process, worth 25%, evaluated company policies, practices and demographics while the second part, worth 75%, was a survey taken anonymously by employees of the applying companies.

“In a year that was full of uncertainty we’re proud to have kept our focus on our people,” said Sundance Vacations President John Dowd. “As a result of that focus our employees have honored us as one of the Best Places to Work in Pa for the fourth year in a row.”

Sundance Vacations will be recognized and honored at the Best Places to Work in PA evening awards ceremony on Tuesday, November 30, 2010, at the Lancaster County Convention Center in Lancaster, PA. Rankings will be revealed at the ceremony.
