Gannett included in Forbes 2024 Best Employers for Diversity
Gannett is recognized for the fourth time by Forbes as one of America’s Best Employers for Diversity. The 2024 distinction reflects the company’s continued commitment to inclusion, diversity, equity and belonging.
Forbes 2024 Best Employers for Diversity were identified in an independent survey from a vast sample of over 170,000 U.S.-based employees working for companies employing at least 1,000 people. 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 respective industries that stand out either positively or negatively with regard to diversity.
- Key Performance Indicators (KPIs): 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.
“We are honored to be recognized again for intentionally embedding inclusivity in our culture and programs, our business operations, and how we connect with our customers and communities,” said LaToya Johnson, Senior Director of Inclusion Strategy. “We are proud of our progress and will continue to learn and adapt in an ever-changing environment – committed to our inclusion goals and objectives.”
