Best Places to Work Winner 2009

September 21, 2009 –Salar, Inc., an electronic clinical document solutions provider, announced today that it has been honored by the Baltimore Business Journal as one of Baltimore’s “Best Places to Work.” The company ranked first among all local “micro businesses” (fewer than 25 employees) on the publication’s annual list of winners, based on surveys completed by employees. As a winner, Salar was honored Thursday at a luncheon at the Baltimore Marriott Hunt Valley Inn and featured in the September 18 edition of the Baltimore Business Journal.

The theme of this year’s “Best Places to Work” contest was “Riding out the Recession” and recognized companies that have managed to maintain success and employee morale despite the difficult economic climate. Even with the downtown of the economy, Salar managed to grow in both revenue and staff size in 2009 and plans to continue this growth in 2010 as the federal government pushes for the adoption of electronic medical records. Salar’s solutions were recently implemented at the Greater Baltimore Medical Center and the company is currently accepting applications for software engineering and customer service positions.

“We feel very proud to have built a company that is strong enough to be successful in these challenging times,” said Todd Johnson, president, Salar, Inc. “At the same time, we’ve also worked hard to create a fun and inspiring atmosphere for our team, and we are equally proud to have received this honor, given that it is based on feedback from our employees.”

Founded in 1999 and headquartered in the Fells Point area of Baltimore City, Salar keeps its employee morale high with regular staff paintball outings, crab feasts, happy hours and annual participation in the Baltimore Marathon. The company also contributes to local charities and has raised funds for organizations including the Hopkins Children’s Center.
