Dallas, Texas, September 17, 2009 - A Better Answer Call Centers (ABA) is proud to announce it was honored at the 8th annual Best Places to Work awards luncheon at the Intercontinental in Addison, Texas as one of the top 100 small businesses in Dallas & Fort Worth as A Best Places To Work for 2009 by its employees and the Dallas Business Journal.

Dee Hawkins, CEO and President of A Better Answer Call Centers, commented during the awards luncheon, "I am thrilled ABA placed in the top 100 and was the only inbound call center to be named a finalist. We have strived to make policy changes during the past year to make A Better Answer Call Centers a great place to work. The summary reports from the 2008 surveys afforded us the opportunity to make changes that would create not only happier employees but also reduce turnover which is costly to any company."
