Last fall, the Dayton Daily News teamed with Workplace Dynamics to identify the large, midsize and small companies and organizations in the Dayton-Springfield area that truly shine when it comes to employee satisfaction. More than 10,000 area workers responded to WorkplaceDynamics’ survey.

Employees answered questions about whether St. Leonard is heading in the right direction, whether St. Leonard operates efficiently, and whether employees are listened to and given opportunities to grow. Employees also were asked about their pay and benefits, among other things.  Here are some of the comments we received from our employees:

“Helping residents to regain their independence. The flexibility with which I do my work.”

“What a joy to be able to serve my community and work at the same time!”

“The feeling that bottom line revenue is not the most important thing, customers are.”

“Everyone works together. Leadership in this facility is very strong.”

The relationships and networks that the 55+ worker hold are important in today’s workplace. These networks can help build trust within industries, especially when the market segment is the growing baby boomer market. In addition, the 55+ worker can add innovation and stability into an intergenerational workplace, which also depends on knowledge and experience. The 55+ worker is a contender for the “war on talent” and the only other challenge for them is finding the right job to compliment their growing healthy lifestyles.

Recent research conducted at Yale University found that women who walk regularly have a 45% greater chance of survival after being diagnosed with breast cancer than those women who remain sedentary. Just 30 minutes of walking every day reveal tests with lower C-reactive protein (CRP) and Amyloid A (SAA), which are indicators of inflammation and other disease processes.
