FRANKLIN LAKES, N.J. (July 13, 2023) – BD (Becton, Dickinson and Company) (NYSE: BDX), a leading global medical technology company, today announced that it is one of 200 companies named to U.S. News & World Report’s 2023-2024 “Best Companies to Work For” list.
The inaugural ranking evaluated companies based on how well they meet employees’ expectations, with measures including quality of pay and benefits, work-life balance and flexibility, job and company stability, physical and psychological comfort, belongingness and esteem, and career opportunities and professional development.
“This recognition is a testament to the emphasis we place on empowering our teams through a focus on developing servant leaders, supporting employee well-being, and advancing our inclusion, diversity and equity strategy,” said Shana Neal, executive vice president and chief people officer for BD. “These efforts that enable BD employees to excel in their careers and advance our culture are priorities that help us continue to accelerate progress against our BD 2025 strategy.”
To calculate the list, U.S. News & World Report only considered companies that were a part of the Russell 1000 index as of June 2022 and had more than 75 Glassdoor reviews written in 2022. The methodology, developed with the support of a panel of six experts, also factors in data, including employee sentiment, gathered from U.S. News & World Report partners Revelio Labs and ESG Book.
This year BD was also included in the 2023 Bloomberg Gender-Equality Index, named a "Noteworthy Company" in DiversityInc's annual ranking of the top U.S. companies for diversity, and earned a perfect score as a best place to work for disability inclusion.
These recognitions reflect the company's efforts in advancing its environmental, social, and governance (ESG) strategy to achieve its 2030+ goals for promoting a healthy workforce and communities. These goals encompass maintaining a healthy and thriving workforce that cultivates the company's culture of inclusion, safety, well-being, and also contributes to community and company health.
