American Electric Power

American Electric Power (Nasdaq: AEP) has received the 2022 Gallup Exceptional Workplace Award, which recognizes organizations that incorporate employee engagement into core business values. This is the third consecutive year AEP has been honored with the award.

Organizations that administered Gallup’s Q12 employee engagement survey, achieved a participation rate of 80% or higher and received a GrandMean above a certain threshold were invited to apply for the award. A panel evaluated applicants and assessed them against criteria established by Gallup’s employee engagement and performance data study. Applicants were compared to Gallup’s extensive database of the world’s most productive and profitable companies, and only organizations in the top tier of the database qualified to win. AEP was one of 41 companies selected to receive the award.

“Creating an engaged, collaborative company culture not only allows AEP to attract and retain top talent, but also encourages innovation to help us better serve our customers,” said Nicholas K. Akins, AEP chairman, president and chief executive officer. “We’re proud to receive this recognition for a third year in a row as it demonstrates our ongoing commitment to transforming and improving our company culture. We look forward to working together to continue this positive momentum as we build a workplace where all employees feel valued.”
