MIDLAND, Mich. – April 4, 2023 – Dow (NYSE: DOW) has earned a place on the Great Place to Work® and FORTUNE 100 Best Companies to Work For® list for the third consecutive year, moving up ten places from #99 last year to #89.
Dow is also the only materials science company to be recognized and one of only three manufacturing and production companies to make the list.
To determine the 100 Best Companies to Work For, Great Place To Work analyzed the anonymous survey responses of more than half a million employees from Great Place To Work Certified™ companies with at least 1,000 employees. Companies also submitted essays describing their efforts to offer generous and innovative support for their people, which were validated against employee survey responses.
"We are proud of this recognition which is based on direct feedback from our employees” said Jim Fitterling, Dow chairman and chief executive officer. “Being recognized again as a Great Place to Work is also an opportunity to continue to reflect on the responsibility we have to our people and our culture going forward, and ensuring we continue to raise the bar on enabling the best possible employee experience at Dow – which in turn enables better outcomes for all our stakeholders."
Making the Fortune 100 Best Companies to Work For list is highly competitive. Survey responses reflect a comprehensive picture of the workplace experience. Honorees were selected based on their ability to offer positive outcomes for employees regardless of job role, race, gender, sexual orientation, work status, or other demographic identifiers.
“This recognition is proof of the commitment from Team Dow to establish a workplace that embraces diversity and inclusion for all,” said Alveda Williams, Dow chief inclusion officer. “Our Company thrives because of Team Dow, and in order to realize our ambition, it is necessary to cultivate a culture where everyone can contribute their utmost potential.”
Dow has also been recognized by Great Place to Work® with certifications in several other countries around the world including Argentina, Brazil, Canada, China, Colombia, France, India, Mexico, the Philippines, Poland, Saudi Arabia, and South Africa.
