The Best Employers for Diversity 2024 were identified in an independent survey from a sample of over 170,000 U.S.-based employees working for companies employing at least 1,000 people within the U.S. The evaluation was based on three different criteria:

• Personal Recommendations: Employees were asked to give their opinions on a series of statements regarding age, gender, ethnicity, disability, LGBTQIA+ and general diversity in their current workplace.
• Public Recommendations: Participants were also given the chance to evaluate other employers in their industries that stand out either positively or negatively regarding diversity.
• Key Performance Indicators: Extensive research was carried out to evaluate how companies fared across a range of diversity-related best practices. This included things like representation, accountability and communication, internal initiatives and external involvement.
