One of only seven employers to make FlexJobs'
annual list every year since 2014
TROY,
Mich., Jan. 23, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- For the
tenth consecutive year, Kelly has been named to FlexJobs' annual
list of the Top 100 Companies to Watch for Remote Jobs. The global
workforce solutions provider ranks fifth in 2023 and is one of only
seven employers to have been recognized every year since 2014.
The list is based on an analysis of approximately 58,000
companies and their remote job posting histories in the FlexJobs
database between Jan. 1 and Dec. 31,
2022. Kelly is one of 100 companies that had the highest
number of remote job openings throughout 2022. A "remote job" is
defined as a professional-level job that allows the employee to
work from home either entirely or part of the time. The recognition
comes after Kelly was also ranked by FlexJobs as the No. 1 company
for hybrid jobs in 2022.
"Kelly has offered work-from-home options for more than a
decade, and we're proud to be among this group of elite companies
who are committed to providing flexible work arrangements," said
Kelly Chief People Officer Amy
Bouque. "Remote and hybrid work enhances our ability to
recruit top talent and contributes to a vibrant, productive
workplace where unique work styles are supported."
Kelly has offered at-home call center jobs since 2009 and today
employs more than 4,000 remote agents in its contact center managed
services business, KellyConnect. In addition to a comfortable
work-from-home environment, KellyConnect team members enjoy weekly
electronic pay, bonuses and incentives, paid time off, and health
insurance options, along with growth and advancement opportunities.
They handle more than 25 million contacts annually and consistently
earn customer satisfaction ratings above 90%.
Seven years ago, Kelly introduced its popular Kelly Anywhere
program, to provide corporate employees the option to work from
home part-time and personalize their work-life design. The
technology infrastructure Kelly put in place at the time allowed
the company to seamlessly transition to a fully remote work
environment at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. Today, many
corporate employees have opted to keep working from home
full-time.
"As leaders in the remote job marketplace, we are thrilled to
once again shine a light on the employers that have made remote
hiring a priority for their businesses," said Sara Sutton founder and CEO of FlexJobs. "As it
was when we first created the Top 100 list a decade ago, our goal
in identifying these remote-friendly employers is to help job
seekers connect to remote career opportunities and to celebrate the
companies championing for a more flexible future of work. Even amid
current economic uncertainty and challenges, the continued interest
and investment in remote work has created a healthy, robust
marketplace for remote career opportunities."
FlexJobs saw a 20% increase in the number of remote job listings
in 2022 over 2021, compared to 12% growth the previous year. The
threshold for employers to make FlexJobs' Top 100 list has
increased from previous years, meaning companies had to have a
higher number of remote job listings to earn the distinction.
