MIAMI, FL – September 19, 2019 – Great Place to Work® and FORTUNE
have named Baptist Health South Florida one of the country’s
Best Workplaces for Women, an honor recognizing organizations that provide the resources and support
women need to thrive and grow at work. Baptist Health ranked #29 on the
prestigious list.
To compile the rankings, Great Place to Work analyzed anonymous survey
feedback from more than 4.6 million employees at Great Place to Work-Certified™
organizations in all sectors of the economy. The survey measured women’s
assessments of their company’s culture, leadership, fairness, transparency,
advancement opportunities and other elements of a great workplace. Companies
named to the Best Workplaces for Women list also had a strong representation
of women in their overall workforce and in management, compared to industry
standards.
“We are an organization with a fundamental culture of caring. It’s
how we treat everyone around us—our patients and families, the communities
we serve and our dedicated employees who uphold our mission and vision
and sustain our culture,” said Adriene McCoy, senior vice president
and chief human resources officer of Baptist Health South Florida. “Our
commitment to supporting our employees’ personal and professional
growth and development is just one way we create a great workplace for
all.”
Research from Great Place to Work has shown that women who say they make
a difference at their organizations are 27 times more likely to describe
their companies as great places to work. The Best Workplaces for Women
set themselves apart from competitors by creating positive experiences
for women and empowering them to reach their full human potential, no
matter who they are or what they do.
“These winning companies are thriving because women have an equal
seat at every table where critical decisions are made,” said Michael
C. Bush, chief executive officer of Great Place to Work. “Organizations
like Baptist Health South Florida know that creating a great workplace
where everyone can succeed regardless of gender is not just the right
thing to do, but a must-do if you want to be the very best of everything
in the marketplace.”
The Best Workplaces for Women is one of a
series of rankings by Great Place to Work and FORTUNE based on employee feedback from Great Place to Work-Certified™
organizations. Baptist Health South Florida also was ranked as one of
