Presented by Utah’s Department of Workforce services, the Utah Work/Life Award recognizes and honors companies that create an exceptional workplace by effectively addressing employee work/life needs and striving to create and maintain a culture of equity and opportunity. “Utah is known for being a great place to work, and we are delighted to be recognized for such a coveted award alongside some of the finest and most esteemed companies within the state of Utah,” says Glenna Lasater, Assistant Vice President Human Resources at MGIS. “We are pleased that our vision and workplace practices are aligned with Utah’s progressive efforts to promote a culture of Work-Life harmony for all who live and work here.” In addition to this award, MGIS is commemorating its 40th year in business. “As we celebrate our accomplishments and longevity, we feel especially honored to continue to serve the brokers, customers, and business partners who have been so loyal over the years,” notes Jeff Brunken, President and Managing Partner. “It is a fitting tribute to MGIS that we should receive this honor during the celebration of our 40th anniversary.
