To identify companies for the list, Forbes partnered with
statistics portal and industry-ranking provider Statista Inc. to
conduct an independent survey of 50,000 employees – including more
than 30,000 women – at companies with at least 1,000 employees in
the U.S. Survey participants rated their employers and provided
feedback on general topics such as work atmosphere, development,
image, working conditions, diversity and wages. Participants also
rated their experience on topics relevant to women such as parental
leave, family support, flexibility, discrimination, career
representation and pay equity. The proportion of women in executive
management or board positions was also considered.
Earlier this year, Forbes recognized Timken as one
of America's Best Employers in the midsized category and
one of America's Best Employers for New Graduates. Recognition on
these lists was based on responses to an independent survey of
50,000 employees in 25 industries.
