The Better Business Bureau of Minnesota and North Dakota (BBB) is calling for nominations for its eleventh annual Integrity Awards. The BBB Integrity Award recognizes companies that display outstanding ethics in dealings with customers, employees, vendors and the community. All for-profit businesses of any size, owned or operated in Minnesota or North Dakota, are eligible. Nominees must have a satisfactory rating with the BBB; however membership is not a requirement to compete for the award. The nomination deadline is April 30th, 2010.
Companies can be nominated by visiting www.thefirstbbb.org, or by sending the company name, contact name, address and phone number, along with the nominator’s name and phone number to BBB, Attn: Integrity Awards, 2706 Gannon Rd., St. Paul, MN 55116; or faxing the information to 651-699-7665.
Entrants are judged on four areas of their business:
- management practices;
- customer/vendor/supplier/shareholder relations;
- marketing/advertising/communications/sales practices;
- and reputation within their industry/community.
Once nominated, the nominee will receive an official entry form from the BBB. An independent panel of judges will decide the award finalists and recipients. Winners will be announced live at the BBB's 2010 Integrity Awards in October (details to follow). Winners will also be recognized in Integrity Awards publicity and will be eligible to compete for the National BBB Torch Award for Marketplace Ethics.
