Nomination Deadline Extended for Kansas City Top Workplaces
There’s still time to earn recognition as a Top Workplace in the Kansas City metro area.
For the second year, the Kansas City Star will honor outstanding workplace culture in the region. Any organization with 50 or more employees in the region is eligible to compete for a Top Workplaces award. Standout companies will be honored in December 2026.
The nomination deadline has been extended to Aug. 28. Employers can be public, private, non-profit, a school, or even a government agency. To nominate an employer or for more information on the awards, just go to kansascity.com/nominate or call (913) 318-5766.
There is no cost to participate. To qualify as a Kansas City Top Workplace, employees evaluate their workplace using a short 26-question survey that takes just a few minutes to complete. Companies will be surveyed through September.
Energage, the Pennsylvania-based research partner for the project, conducts Top Workplaces surveys for media in 70 markets nationwide and surveyed more than 2 million employees at more than 8,000 organizations in the past year.
For the 2025 awards, 33 employers in the Kansas City metro area earned recognition as Top Workplaces.
