Legend Senior Living Earns Great Place to Work® Certification for Sixth Time
May 21 2024 - 11:54AM
Great Place to Work Institute has honored Legend Senior
Living® with certification as a Great Place to Work for the sixth
time. The certification process considered more than 1,000 employee
surveys from across Legend Senior Living’s 58 locations in six
states. Nearly 80% of Legend associates rated the company as a
Great Place to Work, or 20 points higher than the average company.
Legend is also rated higher than the national percentage of
employees in senior living. As high as 90 percent of associates at
several Legend residences rate the company as a GPTW.
Great Place to Work, an independent research and
consulting firm, evaluated more than 60 elements of team members’
experience on the job. These included employee pride in the
organization’s community impact, belief that their work makes a
difference, and feeling their work has special meaning.
“The Great Place to Work Certification is
extremely important to us as it reflects our consistent dedication
to providing a positive experience for every Legend associate, no
matter their role in the company,” said Matt Buchanan, President,
Legend Senior Living. “It's especially gratifying that the surveys
come from the employees themselves to a third-party, which will
continue to help attract the most compassionate professionals to
serve seniors.”
According to Great Place to Work research,
employees are 15 times more likely to choose a company that is
certified as a great workplace. Certified great work places also
retain and attract more talent and provide a more positive and
purposeful work environment.
In addition to consistent certifications as a
Great Place to Work, Legend residences are routinely recognized
among the Top 25 Senior Living communities by Fortune Magazine and
U.S. News & World Report’s Best of Senior Living.
