Employers of 2024 by Forbes, the third time in the company's
history, and named to the Fortune World’s Most Admired Companies™
2024 list, its 13th time to be included.
“We are honored to receive these recognitions showcasing the
integrity of our brand and the confidence of the people behind it,”
said Shelley Simpson, president of J.B. Hunt. “Being among
Fortune's most respected and admired companies in the world
demonstrates our mission of driving long-term value for our people,
customers and shareholders. It’s all made possible by our
employees, and the Forbes acknowledgment indicates that the
workplace culture we have fostered is one they are proud to

In 2023, Forbes also named J.B. Hunt one of the Best Employers
for Women. The company received multiple awards for its workplace
culture from Newsweek, including America’s Greatest Workplaces
(overall), Greatest Workplaces for Women, Greatest Workplaces for
Diversity and Greatest Workplaces for Parents and Families.
Forbes America’s Best Large Employers recognizes the top 500
companies receiving the most recommendations from an independent
survey of more than 170,000 U.S. employees. Participants were asked
to rate their willingness to recommend their employer to family and
friends and encouraged to assess other employers in their
respective industries. Forbes worked with market research firm
Statista to determine this year’s recipients. To be considered, a
company must employee at least 5,000 people within the U.S. Over
3.5 million employer evaluations were considered. The full list is
available on the Forbes website.
Fortune’s list of World’s Most Admired Companies is one of the
leading measurements for corporate reputation. To determine the
best-regarded companies in 52 industries, Fortune collaborated with
Korn Ferry to ask executives, directors, and analysts to rate
enterprises in their own industry on nine criteria, from investment
value and quality of management and products to social
responsibility and ability to attract talent. A company’s score
must rank in the top half of its industry survey to be listed. The
complete list is available here.
