SALT LAKE CITY, UT – November 19, 2009 – The Utah Psychological Association has awarded XMission with the 2009 Psychologically Healthy Workplace Award in the small business category.

"I am pleased for the recognition the UPA has given XMission and the healthy workplace we work so hard to foster here,” said XMission President and Founder, Pete Ashdown.

According to the UPA website, the awards recognize businesses and nonprofits that “contribute to workplace wellness through policies that contribute to employee involvement, work-life balance, employee growth and development, health and safety, and employee recognition.”

XMission has implemented a number of employee-friendly policies, including full health and dental insurance premium payment for families, spouses, and domestic partners.

-	XMission quickly provided ~~Podfitness~~ with colocation services, hosted email, and connectivity, including optical ethernet. Additionally, XMission assisted the ~~Podfitness~~ marketing team by developing a custom database solution for their blogs and forums. According to Edmund, “XMission came through for us and ordered lines, expedited them for us, did all the backend for us, and helped our marketing team to operate independently.

	“It’s difficult to describe how good XMission is because you get used to it after awhile. We haven’t had a single complaint about XMission’s level of service,“ concludes Edmund. “The technology at XMission is heads above everything else that’s in Salt Lake, but when you combine that with a great, great staff…that’s perfect.”		“It’s difficult to describe how good XMission is because you get used to it after awhile.
