OOSTBURG, Wis., May 10, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Viking Masek Packaging Technologies, a leading manufacturer of automated packaging systems, was named a 2022 Top Workplace by the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel for the second year in a row.

This is the thirteenth year that the Journal Sentinel has published their list of top workplaces, and the second consecutive year that Viking Masek has participated and been awarded. The award was given to 146 companies in southeastern Wisconsin.

The Top Workplaces list is compiled based on anonymous employee engagement surveys administered by Energage, a cultural technology company. The survey measures 15 unique culture drivers that are critical to the success of any organization.

Viking Masek's overall survey results showed 72% of employees are engaged, which is 11% higher than benchmark.

"Our employees' dedication and commitment to the core values this company was founded upon allows us to grow and excel as an industry leader. Our employees work tirelessly, sacrificing valuable time with their families. In return, we are very selective in our hiring process to ensure that all our staff is fully committed to our cultural values by contributing every day to maintain the integrity of our company. Our employees invest in us, we do everything we can to invest in them." Robb Leonhard, President.
