WASHINGTON D.C., (October 2, 2015) \u2013<\/b> Assisting Hands Home Care franchisee Greg Kling of Cincinnati, Ohio<\/a> was honored today by the International Franchise Association<\/a> with its annual Franchisee of the Year Award. He and his wife and business partner, Kim Kling, own and operate Assisting Hands Cincinnati, an in-home caregiving franchise. <\/span><\/p>\n

Franchise owner-operators representing 53 franchise systems were recognized today during the IFA\u2019s Franchise Action Network Annual Meeting, formerly the Public Affairs Conference, for their outstanding performance and the contributions they have made to enhance the growth and development of franchising.\u00a0 Each award winner was selected by their franchise company.<\/p>\n

“Greg and Kim absolutely deserve this award,” said Assisting Hands Home Care President and CEO Lane Kofoed. “They possess the business skills and leadership qualities needed to ensure their office is run effectively and their clients receive the highest quality in-home care.”<\/span><\/p>\n

“My wife and and I are humbled by this award and the recognition of our franchising peers,” said Assisting Hands Cincinnati owner, Greg Kling. “We feel Assisting Hands Home Care corporate leadership provides the tools and structure to be successful, but also the flexibility to make independent business decisions to best serve our clients.”<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe strength of the U.S. economy significantly relies on the hard work of franchisees,\u201d said IFA Executive Vice President of Government Relations & Public Policy Robert Cresanti.\u00a0 <\/span>\u201cIFA is proud to recognize the outstanding efforts of Greg with the Franchisee of the Year Award and thank him for his work in the promotion of franchising as well as for his daily contributions that not only showcase how local business owners propel the economy, but also foster community ties throughout the U.S.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

The Franchisee of the Year Award is a major component of the IFA\u2019s Franchise Action Network Annual Meeting, which brings more than 400 franchise business leaders together in Washington, D.C. to carry the key messages of franchising to lawmakers on Capitol Hill.<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span>During the two-day event, which began Sept. 28 and continues through Sept. 30, franchise industry leaders will meet with over 200 congressional offices about issues important to the future of franchising, including specifically labor and workforce issues. The Franchise Action Network is a powerful tool to help forward IFA\u2019s advocacy efforts and further increase awareness about how franchising can contribute to economic recovery and job growth and educate lawmakers how franchise businesses contribute to their local communities<\/span>.\u00a0<\/span>The event is supported by founding sponsor ADP Small Business Services.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

During their visits to Washington, IFA members are highlighting the economic impact of franchising. Franchise businesses directly support nearly 8.9 million workers and contribute more than $890 billion to the U.S. Gross Domestic Product, or 3 percent of total private sector GDP.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Despite these encouraging growth numbers, the National Labor Relations Board\u2019s (NLRB) recent \u2018joint employer\u2019 ruling has thrown a wrench into the economic growth potential of the franchising business model and its proven ability to create jobs, deliberately ignoring decades of regulatory, legal and legislative precedent, which clearly separates businesses from their franchisors. IFA members will bring this message to Capitol Hill to educate lawmakers about the dangers of the NLRB\u2019s ruling and the negative impact it will create on job growth, the economy and locally-owned franchise small businesses in every state.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cLawmakers in Washington would do well to remember that with sound regulatory policies, franchise businesses can create the jobs necessary for sustained economic recovery and job growth,\u201d Cresanti said. \u201cUnchecked regulatory overreach by a single agency, run by officials with a defined, narrow and parochial interest, has the capacity to derail significant economic activity in the United States; destroying the dreams of small business ownership one small company at a time.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
