Centennial Writes Article for Commonwealth Contractor

Our very own Vice President of Human Resources, Rick Wilson wrote an article for Virginia ABC’s Commonwealth Contractor. In “Why Investing in Your Employees is a Good Business Practice…Recession or Not”, Rick provides contractors with a look at programs Centennial implemented in an effort to reduce voluntary employee turnover. The results—voluntary turnover went down 16.6% in four years.

Here are a couple of quick highlights from the article:

• The Centennial College of Excellence helps employees get career training and advance their careers at Centennial
• Managers get leadership training annually at the Leadership Conference which helps them become people managers rather than project managers
• A variety of recognition programs reward hard work and promote company initiatives, like safety and sustainability.
