Merit Laboratories Featured in Cover Story in the October Issue of Lab Manager

We’re proud to be a part of the cover story in the latest issue of Lab Manager.  The article, Human Resources, explores the important role a laboratory manager should play in hiring, leading, and developing employees.  


Maya Murshak, CEO of Merit Laboratories, shares the company’s approach and philosophy related to assembling a team. “We work very hard on developing a team mentality where everyone has the same interests in doing their best,” Murshak is quoted as saying in the article.

“We crawled out of bad economies by believing in what we are doing and working together through the tough times, and most of all, servicing our clients and their needs,” Murshak says. “I am very fortunate to have a great team filled with smart, loyal, honest employees [who] care about our vision and are committed to what we do.”

For Merit, the article simply reinforces the three motivators that drive the laboratory: its employees, its clients, and the environment.
