Winners are determined based on employees’ responses to the Franchising at Work Employee Engagement Survey conducted by Franchise Business Review.

The entry deadline for the awards is May 31, 2024. Winners will be announced live in August. The top scoring companies will be recognized in Small, Medium, and Large employer categories. The top scoring unit-level franchise organizations and franchise suppliers will also be recognized.

“More than ever, recognition as a preferred employer within the franchise sector is a powerful way to differentiate your company as a top place to work.”

— Michelle Rowan, President & COO, Franchise Business Review

“Franchise executives surveyed by Franchise Business Review continue to cite hybrid work, talent shortages, and employee stress/burnout as significant challenges impacting franchising. That coupled with a tight labor market and a shift in job seeker priorities has made hiring and retention increasingly difficult for some franchise organizations,” said Michelle Rowan, president and COO of Franchise Business Review. “More than ever, recognition as a preferred employer within the franchise sector is a powerful way to differentiate your company as a top place to work. The Franchising at Work Awards not only publicly recognize the companies in the franchise sector that have the best company cultures, the data behind the awards provides franchise companies with powerful insights into how they can attract and retain top talent.”
