WORCESTER COUNTY–The Dec. 31 closing date for nominating great places to work has been extended to Jan. 17, according to Meredith Mears, deputy director of Worcester County Economic Development.
She said the extension was made to accommodate the holiday and vacation schedules of employees who might have been away prior to the end of the December deadline.
Last month, the department sent out a call to local employees to nominate Worcester County employers for the county’s “Best Places to Work” campaign.
Nominations can be submitted via Facebook, Twitter, or the WCED website, www.chooseworcester.org. Submissions will be reviewed by a panel of judges, and finalists will be recognized for their contributions to the Worcester County economy.
Businesses selected will be featured in a “Best Places to Work” video that will be shared on social media outlets, including the WCED YouTube Channel.
WCED invites the public to visit them on social media at the following addresses:
