The Farmers National Bank of Emlenton has been named one of the Best Places to Work in PA for 2015. The awards program, created in 2000, is one of the first statewide programs of its kind in the country. The program is a public/private partnership between Team Pennsylvania Foundation, the Pennsylvania Department of Community and Economic Development, the Pennsylvania State Council of the Society for Human Resource Management, and the Central Penn Business Journal.

"Our Board of Directors, officers and employees are extremely excited about the Best Places to Work recognition. It reflects the importance we place on providing a rewarding and satisfying work environment. Our employees are among our most important constituents and supporters. It is through their efforts and dedication that the Bank continues to expand, realize success, provide a superior customer experience and generate sound returns to all parties interested in our growth. Irrespective of this honor, we place employees first and strive to provide the optimal workplace experience. The Best Places to Work recognition merely validates ongoing efforts in this regard," noted William C. Marsh, Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer of The Farmers National Bank of Emlenton.

Companies from across the state entered the two-part process to determine the 100 Best Places to Work in PA. The first part of this process was evaluating each nominated company's workplace policies, practices, philosophies, systems and demographics. This part of the process was worth approximately 25% of the total evaluation. The second part consisted of an employee survey to measure the employee experience. This part of the process was worth approximately 75% of the total evaluation. The combined scores determined the top companies and the final ranking. Best Companies Group managed the overall registration and survey process.

This survey and awards program was designed to identify, recognize and honor the best places of employment in Pennsylvania, who are benefiting the state's economy and its workforce. Employers are categorized based upon the total number of employees they have in the United States, 25 to 249 employees and 250 or more employees.

The Farmers National Bank of Emlenton will be recognized at the Best Places to Work in PA awards banquet on Thursday, December 3, 2015, at the Lancaster County Convention Center in Lancaster, PA. Rankings will be revealed at the ceremony.
