The seal is a unique mark of excellence designed to identify organizational success in work-life effectiveness. IAC Applications joins the ranks of companies such as Dell, MasterCard, Nestlé Purina PetCare, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cigna and others in receiving this year’s prestigious business award.
“From creative perks like weekly yoga sessions and midday fitness breaks, to subsidized lunches, flexible work hours, and opportunities to volunteer in the community - we’ve worked hard to put in place programs that help employees achieve success in their life and on the job,” said Julie-Anne Selvey, vice president of Brand at IAC Applications. “Receiving a Work-Life Seal of Distinction validates our efforts and shows us that we’re on the right path in providing a rewarding, enriching work environment for all employees.”
