UAB has been recognized as a leading employer in the United States. Forbes has ranked the University of Alabama at Birmingham among the best employers in the United States.
The America’s Best-In-State Employers 2020 title serves to reinforce each organization’s reputation as an employer of high quality.
Forbes partnered with market research company Statista to select the organizations liked best by employees in its second annual ranking of America’s best employers by state. The selection was based on an independent survey of more than 80,000 employees in the United States working for companies employing at least 500 people in their U.S. operations. The surveys were administered using a series of online panels and provide a representative sample of the U.S. workforce, divided into 51 rankings.
“UAB’s commitment to our mission and values has driven our success,” said Alesia Jones, UAB chief human resources officer. “Implementing policies and programs that support the success of our diverse workforce remains a primary focus of HR. Our faculty and staff are proud of the work we do and our contributions to our community, state and beyond. I share that pride; I am certainly proud to work here.”
