Rochester, NY - Hammer Packaging has been named a recipient of the 2007 Rochester Business Ethics Award (RBEA). Hammer won in the "Large-Company" category for companies with 250 employees or more.
In the RBEA format, area companies are nominated for this award by clients, vendors, consultants and colleagues. Invited companies then choose to submit a comprehensive entry with detailed documentation and evidence of their policies and processes that address ethics issues, challenges and opportunities.
"This award is a clear recognition that our culture is deeply rooted in our 5 shared values of integrity, respect, trust, credibility and continuous improvement. It also reaffirms my sound belief that the right people are our most important asset," said James E. Hammer, president and chief executive officer of Hammer Packaging.
This year's independent panel of judges was chaired by Monroe County Supreme Court Justice, Hon. Francis Affronti, which reviewed nominations from 87 companies. The awards program was established in 1994 by the National Society of Financial Service Professionals. The Rochester awards were initiated in 2003.
"Rochester has a large depth and breadth of businesses operating in a highly ethical manner," said Martin Palumbos, co-chair of the award program and senior partner in the financial planning firm PS&E LLC. "At the very onset this year, the 87 companies that were invited to participate are perceived as operating in a highly ethical way, and this is a compliment to each and every one of them."
By winning this award, Hammer will automatically be entered in a national award competition; the 2008 American Business Ethics Award.
