Southern Utah University has been awarded on the Forbes list of America’s Best-In-State Employers 2024. This prestigious award is presented by Forbes and Statista Inc., the leading statistics portal and industry ranking provider. The award list was announced on August 20th, 2024, and can be viewed on the Forbes website.
America's Best-In-State Employers 2024 have been identified in an independent survey from a vast sample of over 160,000 employees working for companies employing at least 500 people within the U.S. The ranking is open to companies from all industry sectors. Around 4.4 million employer evaluations were considered. The consideration of data from three years allowed a robust differentiation between organizations that consistently perform well from those that may only have had a single good year. An employer's final score is determined on a state-by-state basis and is built upon two types of employee evaluations:
- Personal Evaluations: Employees’ willingness to recommend their own employers to friends and family.
- Public Evaluations: Recommendations from friends and family members of employees, or members of the public who work in the same industry- also known as indirect evaluations.
Based on the study results, Southern Utah University is honored to be recognized on the Forbes list of America’s Best-In-State Employers 2024.
“Our unrivaled student support starts by championing the faculty and staff who work behind the scenes to help our students soar,” says SUU President, Mindy Benson. “Over the past few years, SUU administration has been diligent about shaping a campus environment that allows our employees to not just succeed at work, but to enjoy the work they do in an environment that values their contribution and supports work-life balance. We are thrilled these ongoing efforts are paying off.
