OKLAHOMA CITY, March 27, 2007 â€" Express Services, Inc. was named one of the best places to work in Oklahoma by Best Companies Group, an organization dedicated to finding and recognizing Oklahoma’s best employers.

Its list, “2007 Best Places to Work in Oklahoma,” is based off collected data and internal employee surveys conducted by Modern Think LLC, a workplace excellence consulting firm. This statewide competition sets out to motivate local workplace environments toward excellence.

Best Companies Group and OKCBusiness are partnering with Oklahoma HR Council, The State Chamber, Career Tech, Oklahoma Center for Nonprofits, Greater Oklahoma City Chamber of Commerce and Oklahoma Department of Commerce to conduct the annual program.

Thirty winners were selected this year, representing both medium-sized companies of 25 up to 249 employees and large-sized companies of 250 employees or more. Express Services, Inc. is the corporate headquarters for nearly 600 Express Personnel Services offices. With 200 employees at the corporate location, the company was recognized on the list of mid-sized employers. Specific rankings will be announced May 3 at a gala awards dinner at the historic Skirvin Hilton in Oklahoma City.

With 30 offices statewide and nearly 600 offices in four countries, Express Services, Inc. employs 350,000 people each year. Sales for the Oklahoma City-based company totaled $1.8 billion in 2006. Express provides expertise in evaluation and direct hire, temporary staffing, executive recruiting and human resources.
