Delphi Receives Business-Childcare Award

    TROY, Mich. - Delphi Automotive Systems operations in Kokomo and Anderson, 
Ind., recently received Business-Childcare Awards from the Indiana Department of 
Commerce.  Lt. Governor Joe Kernan presented the inaugural award to Delphi Delco 
Electronics Systems and Delphi Energy & Chassis Systems for excellence in

    The award, established by the Indiana Department of Commerce's Community
Development Division, honors companies that excel in the following categories:
on-site childcare facilities; near-site childcare facilities; monetary
contribution provided to assist in childcare options; resource and referral;
health-care and time-off options; sliding fees and education provided to
parents for childcare.

    Delphi officials accepted the award at a celebration at the Indiana
Statehouse in Indianapolis.

providing the MicroChips Learning Center, an on-site childcare facility for
parents with pre-school age children.
