MIAMI, Oct. 13, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Carnival
Corporation & plc (NYSE/LSE: CCL;NYSE: CUK), the world's
largest cruise company, today announced it has been named as one of
the World's Best Employers of 2021 by Forbes, a leading source of
business news worldwide.
Presented by Forbes and Statista Inc., the world-leading
statistics portal and industry ranking provider, the prestigious
annual listing honors the best international employers from over 35
major industries, including travel and leisure. In Forbes' fifth
annual survey, Carnival Corporation – whose nine popular cruise
line brands include namesake Carnival Cruise Line, Holland America
Line, Princess Cruises and Seabourn in the U.S., along with AIDA
Cruises, Cunard, Costa Cruises, P&O Cruises UK and P&O
Cruises Australia – was ranked among the best 750 employers in the
world based on results and feedback from 150,000 full- and
part-time workers at multinational companies and institutions from
58 countries. The full list of the World's Best Employers for 2021
is available on the Forbes website.
"We are honored to be recognized by Forbes as one of the top
employers in the world, and we are extremely proud of our talented
and passionate team members whose dedication and commitment is the
foundation of our success," said Roger
Frizzell, chief communications officer for Carnival
Corporation. "We fully embrace the importance and value of
providing an inclusive and supportive work environment for all of
our colleagues, and operating with integrity, trust and respect for
each other. We are grateful to see the hard work of our entire team
lead to recognition of this magnitude."
Frizzell added: "Our ongoing focus to create one of the best
places to work in the world is reflected in our highest
responsibility and top priority, which is compliance, environmental
protection, and the health, safety and well-being of our guests,
the people in the communities we visit, and our shipboard and
shoreside personnel."
The Forbes World's Best Employers list was determined through a
globally administered independent survey of more than 150,000
employees in 58 countries working full- or part-time. Participants
were asked to anonymously evaluate their current employer based on
factors such as willingness to recommend their company to family
and friends, while also providing recommendations for other
employers in their industry. Respondents also ranked their
satisfaction with various aspects of the overall employee
experience, including working conditions, salary, potential for
growth and diversity. Based on these direct and indirect employee
recommendations, along with public perception scores, Forbes
included only the top 750 companies out of thousands of
organizations considered for the recognition.
This latest honor as a top international employer is the most
recent in a series of recognitions Carnival Corporation has earned
for excellence in the workplace in 2021, including a separate
listing from Forbes as one of America's Best Large Employers.
Earlier this year, Carnival Corporation was named a Glassdoor
Employees' Choice Award Winner honoring the best 100 U.S. places to
work and earned a perfect score on the Human Rights Campaign
Foundation's 2021 Corporate Equality Index, designating the company
as a Best Place to Work for LGBTQ Equality. Carnival Corporation
was also recognized for its commitment to corporate social
responsibility leadership by Newsweek on its second annual list of
America's Most Responsible Companies for 2021. Most recently, the
company was named as one of the Best Companies for Latinos by
Latino Leaders Magazine.
The recognition for excellence in the workplace underscores
Carnival Corporation's commitment to support diversity, equity and
inclusion throughout its companywide operations and to provide a
positive and empowering corporate culture for all its shipboard and
shoreside employees. The company's success is a direct result of
its employees, who represent nearly 150 countries across the globe
and have helped create a collaborative and dedicated workforce
committed to consistently exceeding guest expectations and
providing extraordinary vacations for millions of guests around the
world.
