Domino's Recognized as One of 'Metro Detroit's 101 Best and Brightest
Companies To Work For'
For the fifth time since 2004, Domino's appears on the "Best and Brightest"
list



ANN ARBOR, Mich., Nov. 9 /PRNewswire/ -- Domino's Pizza (NYSE: DPZ), the
recognized world leader in pizza delivery, was once again recently chosen as
one of Metropolitan Detroit's 101 Best & Brightest Companies to Work For by
the Michigan Business and Professional Association (MBPA). The award honors
southeastern Michigan companies that demonstrate exceptional human resources
and employee relations practices, and was presented at a luncheon held on Oct.
29 at the Conference and Events Center in Dearborn, Mich. It is the fifth time
in six years, and fourth consecutive recognition Domino's Pizza has received
since participating in the "Best and Brightest" list selection.

The 101 Best and Brightest Companies to Work for awards program was
established to honor companies that recognized employees as their greatest
asset. Winners of the annual award are companies that demonstrate imagination
and conviction to create value with results through their best practices in
human resource management. 

"Our human resources department at Domino's Pizza is referenced as PeopleFirst
in honor of our number one guiding principle, 'putting people first'," said
Domino's Executive Vice President of PeopleFirst Patti Wilmot. "This principle
is something we live by each and every day at Domino's.  It is our goal to be
the best pizza delivery company in the world and this cannot be accomplished
without a first-rate team. I am extremely proud and honored to be recognized
once again for our efforts."

MBPA conducts an extensive evaluation process to determine which companies
earn the distinction of being named one of "Metro Detroit's Best & Brightest."
Part of the evaluation includes an extensive survey of Domino's recruitment
and selection process, recognition and retention programs, communication,
diversity and multiculturalism, employee education and development, operating
data, compensation and benefits, community initiatives and work-life balance.
Additionally, Domino's team members were randomly selected to complete
anonymous and confidential surveys to gauge the effectiveness of the company's
efforts.
