Baltimore, Maryland Business Health Services (BHS) was named a finalist for the 2007 Torch Award for Marketplace Ethics sponsored by the Better Business Bureau of Greater Maryland. BHS was selected as a finalist by a panel of independent, prestigious judges. The Torch Award is granted to companies who exemplify honesty, integrity, and marketplace trust. Business Health Services is a Behavioral Risk Management provider. With over 20 years experience, BHS specializes in workplace wellness, life coaching, work-life balance and organizational development. BHS is a stand-alone vendor providing nationwide workplace wellness solutions to organizations such as MedStar Health, Inc., JetBlue Air, Anne Arundel County Government, Prince George’s County Public Schools, The Baltimore Ravens, and News America Incorporated. An important BHS core value is to ‘Uphold Professionalism.’ In regards to this core value, BHS employees strive to conduct themselves, and their business, according to the highest professional and ethical standards. “As our company has grown significantly over the past eight years, BHS has continued to uphold a commitment to integrity, following through on promises and service excellence. Our employees have a sense of ownership in the company and take pride in the services we offer our clients. We strive to partner with client organizations who share this same commitment,” said Dawn Motovidlak, President and CEO, Business Health Services. Ms. Motovidlak obtained her role as President/CEO by purchasing BHS at the notably young age of 27. Since then, Ms. Motovidlak has acquired two major competitors and has grown the company over 800%. The Torch Awards for Marketplace Ethics program was developed by the BBB’s Education Foundation in 1997, a non-profit, 501(c)3 arm of the BBB, to give recognition to for-profit businesses in Maryland that have demonstrated long term dedication to ethical practices in all aspects of business. “The goal of the program is not only to honor those companies who strive for excellence in business,” said Angie Barnett, president and CEO of the BBB Greater Maryland, “but also to encourage consumers to seek out businesses that illuminate and support a fair and ethical marketplace.” Torch Award winners will be announced at the BBB ‘Big Event’ red carpet awards ceremony on September 26, 2007.
