To help women identify companies that serve their needs—and for businesses to evaluate their own treatment of women — Forbes magazine has compiled a ranking of America’s 400 Best Employers for Women. Created in partnership with market research firm Statista, the list derives primarily from surveys of more than 60,000 workers at companies with at least 1000 employees. Women were also asked to rate their employer based on factors such as pay equity, parental-leave policies, leadership training programs for women, representation of women in upper management, and employer response to incidents of discrimination. Further research was conducted into each company’s presence of women in executive management or board positions. The top five highest-ranking retailers, and their overall position on the list, are:Costco Wholesale (Issaquah, Wash.) H-E-B Grocery Co. (San Antonio) Trader Joe’s (Monrovia, Calif.)40.
