New national award recognizes companies that lead with purpose and prioritize the people on the front lines of their success
Energage, the HR technology company behind the Top Workplaces employer recognition program, and Bucketlist, a leading employee rewards and recognition platform, today announced the inaugural Top Workplaces for Frontline Workers award, honoring organizations that have built exceptional workplace cultures where frontline employees feel valued, supported, and empowered to succeed.

“Frontline employees are the backbone of so many industries — from healthcare and manufacturing to retail and hospitality,” said Eric Rubino, CEO of Energage. “They’re the ones ensuring the day-to-day work gets done, often under pressure and with little visibility. These award-winning employers understand that recognizing and investing in their frontline people isn’t just the right thing to do — it’s smart business.”
The Top Workplaces for Frontline Workers award celebrates organizations that put people first and foster cultures of respect, trust, and purpose. Eligible companies employed a minimum of 35 frontline workers or had frontline employees representing at least 10% of their total workforce.
Winners were selected based on confidential employee feedback captured by the Energage Workplace Survey, the same research-backed engagement tool used to determine all Top Workplaces awards.
“At Bucketlist, we’re proud to shine a national spotlight on companies that champion their frontline teams,” said Jason Lindstrom, CEO and Co-Founder of Bucketlist Rewards. “These organizations know recognition is more than a gesture — it’s the foundation of a thriving workplace. The companies on this list prove that when you invest in your people, everyone wins.”
The inaugural list includes employers across industries such as construction, healthcare, hospitality, manufacturing, retail, and logistics, among others — all united by a shared commitment to honoring the people who represent their brands and power their operations.
