Company Recognized for 3rd Straight Year
RESTON, Va., Aug. 19, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- For the third straight year, Forbes has named global consulting and technology services provider ICF (NASDAQ:ICFI) one of America's Best Employers for Women.
"We are honored to be named one of the best employers in the country for women," said John Wasson, ICF chair and chief executive officer. "This recognition reflects our commitment to creating an inclusive environment where every voice is valued, and every woman can thrive in their career. At ICF, we believe that empowering women in the workplace is not just the right thing to do—it's essential to success. We will continue to push boundaries and set higher standards for equality, ensuring every woman at ICF has the opportunities, resources and respect they deserve to reach their full potential."
Half of ICF's workforce and people managers identify as women. The company offers programs, policies and initiatives that provide women with career growth opportunities, pay equity, health and well-being benefits, flexible work arrangements, access to reproductive healthcare, and much more. Additionally, ICF's women's affinity group provides their thousands of employee members and allies with opportunities for networking, mentorship, professional development, community outreach and overall support.
To create the list, Forbes partnered with market research firm Statista to survey 150,000 women working at U.S. companies with at least 1,000 employees. Respondents were asked to rate their organizations on criteria such as working environment, pay equity, parental leave and the company's handling of incidents related to sexual misconduct and discrimination. They were also asked how likely they were to recommend their current or previous employers. Responses from the last three years were considered, as well as the percentage of women in executive and board positions.
In 2024, ICF was also included on Forbes' America's Best Management Consulting Firms list, for the ninth straight year, and Best Employers for Diversity list, for the fourth straight year.
