The 2019 Best Places to Work in Maine list is made up of 100 companies in three size categories: small (15-49 U.S. employees), medium (50-249 U.S. employees) and large (250+ U.S. employees). 

To be considered for participation, companies had to fulfill the following eligibility requirements:

Companies from across the state take part in a two-part process to determine the Best Places to Work in Maine. The first part, worth approximately 25% of the total evaluation, consisted of assessing each nominated company's workplace policies, practices, and demographics. The second part, representative of 75% of the total evaluation, is based on an extensive employee survey that measures the employee experience. The combined scores determine the top companies and the final rankings.  Best Companies Group managed the overall registration and survey process in Maine, analyzing the data and use their expertise to determine the final rankings. 

The statewide awards program was created in 2006 and is a project of the Society for Human Resource Management - Maine State Council (MESHRM) and Best Companies Group. Partners endorsing the program include: Mainebiz, the Maine State Chamber of Commerce, and the Maine HR Convention.
