LAKE SUCCESS, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (NYSE:BR) today announced it has

rigorous workplace research ever conducted. Broadridge is one of only 25
companies worldwide to receive the prestigious honor this year.
"The winners of this award continue to establish new global standards
for engaging people," said Tom Rath, who leads Gallup's Workplace and
Leadership Consulting practice. "When compared to the millions of
workgroups we have studied around the world, the awardees have worked
tirelessly to create an environment that values people. They go far

distinguished organization as Gallup and to be counted among the small

upon those results. We are especially proud of the time and effort
invested on the part of our associates and management team every day to
create such a positive work environment and culture at Broadridge,” Ms.
Charbonnier added.

About the Gallup Great Workplace Award
The award's weight and design equal the merit of the winners'
accomplishments. To create the award, Gallup designers collaborated with
R.S.Owens & Company, the company that produces many of the world's most
prestigious awards, including the Academy Award. The award consists of
two components: The top design features 12 etched crystal planes,
layered to convey the kinetic energy of an engaged workforce. The
crystal sits atop a concave-shaped pedestal base composed of polished
silver-plated legs and a satin finish front display. The combination of
these parts results in a piece that evokes the nature of engagement.
