Listing Methodology

Companies undergo a five-part evaluation process to identify the top companies for the Newsweek ranking. It begins with a pre-study survey of HR professionals to identify employee satisfaction drivers. It is followed by a main employee survey based on more than 223,000 interviews and more than 1.5 million company reviews. This phase assesses employer familiarity and gathers responses on various diversity aspects. The third phase involves a rigorous desk research project, collecting more than 21 diversity Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). The fourth phase consists of media monitoring to identify potential legal disputes related to workplace diversity. The final phase is the validation of these findings to calculate an individual company diversity score.
