Redmond Named One of Utah's Best Employers

For the fifth consecutive year, Redmond Minerals was honored for being one of the top ten businesses to work for in Utah. This award recognizes companies that work hard to create a sustainable workplace culture that provides meaningful support to employees, their families, and their communities.

Redmond's success over recent years stems from a company-wide commitment to its shared values statement. Part of this statement reads, "We are passionate about our work. We are a driving influence of good with each other. We are trustworthy, proactive, accountable, humble, and courageous. We are loyal-to principle, the company, and each other. And, we live the ideology 'good enough never is.'"

"Every employee cares about their work and will complete goals and tasks in a timely manner," explained one Redmond associate in a questionnaire used by the Department of Workforce Services during the selection process. "We are strongly encouraged to live a balanced life here at Redmond. We believe that the physical, social, mental, and spiritual aspects of life are all linked together and affect one another."

Many companies exist around the idea that profit is the sole reason for existence and that employees are a means to that end. By contrast, Redmond's philosophy is that profit is the means to the end goal, which is human development and life enhancement.

"Continuing education is a very important aspect of our business," wrote another Redmond associate. "Culture and values revolve around growth and learning, stretching us to become the best people we can."
