Voya Financial, Inc. (NYSE: VOYA), has been named by Forbes as
one of the 2023 America’s Best Employers for Women. This
prestigious award is presented by Forbes and Statista Inc., the
world-leading statistics portal and industry ranking provider. The
recipients were announced on July 25, 2023, and the complete list
can be viewed on the Forbes website.
The Best Employers for Women have been identified in an
independent survey from a sample of more than 60,000 U.S. employees
that primarily work for companies employing at least 1,000 people
within the United States. The sample included more than 40,000
women. The recognition is based on 2022 information and no fee was
paid for consideration.
The evaluation was based on four criteria:
- Direct recommendations (General work topics): The
employees were asked to give their opinion on a series of
statements surrounding atmosphere and development, image, working
conditions, salary and wage, workplace, and diversity regarding
their employer.
- Direct recommendations (Topics relevant to women): To
focus on topics that are, in general, more relevant to them, women
were asked to rate their employers regarding parental leave, family
support, flexibility, discrimination, representation and career,
and pay equity.
- Indirect recommendations: Participants were given the
chance to evaluate other employers in their respective industries
that stand out either positively or negatively concerning
diversity. Only the recommendations of women were considered.
- Diversity among top executives/boards: Based on
extensive research, an index was built based on the share of women
in executive management or board positions. Statista researched
this data for each company using publicly available company
information.
“Voya is honored to be recognized by Forbes as one of the 2023
America’s Best Employers for Women,” said Nicole Starks, vice
president, Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI). “Our consistent
efforts to advance gender equity by supporting women in their
career development and increasing female representation in
leadership is a key aspect of Voya’s culture and reflects our
commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion."
Earlier this year, Voya Financial was named by Forbes as one of
America’s Best Employers for Diversity for 2023 and by Newsweek as
one of America’s Greatest Workplaces for 2023. These recognitions
were based on 2022 information and no fee was paid for
consideration. To learn more, please visit
