Forbes and market research firm Statista selected America’s Best Employers for Diversity 2022 through an independent survey applied to a vast sample of over 60,000 U.S. employees working for companies with a minimum of 1,000 employees. The evaluation was based on direct recommendations from employees who were asked to give their opinions on a series of statements regarding Age, Gender, Ethnicity, Disability, LGBTQA+ and General Diversity in their current workplace, as well as indirect recommendations on employers in their respective industries. Recommendations of women, elders, and ethnic minorities were weighted higher than non-minority groups, and in some cases, used exclusively. Diversity among top executives and boards as well as diversity engagement indicators were also part of the evaluation.
