MIAMI, March 18, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Carnival
Corporation & plc (NYSE/LSE: CCL;NYSE: CUK), the world's
largest cruise company, today announced it has been recognized as
one of the Best Companies for Latinos to Work by Latino Leaders
Magazine, the only national magazine fully dedicated to showcasing
and promoting leadership in the Latino community in the
U.S.
Presented by Latino Leaders Magazine, the index recognizes the
top 25 U.S. companies across various industries, including
manufacturing, hospitality, health, finance, and food and beverage
based on opportunities such as financial stability, clear paths to
career advancement and an inclusive environment. The company's
inclusion marks the second year it has been recognized on the
listing of best employers for Latinos.
"At Carnival Corporation, diversity is a critical part of how we
operate, and we are committed to a positive and empowering
corporate culture for all of our dedicated and passionate
employees," said Roger Frizzell,
chief communications officer for Carnival Corporation, whose U.S.
brands include namesake Carnival Cruise Line, Cunard, Holland
America Line, Princess Cruises and Seabourn. "We believe that
proactively building a diverse and inclusive workforce is not only
the right way to operate, but it is also a business imperative.
With employees from nearly 150 countries, we know there is a
compelling advantage to having people with different backgrounds,
experiences and perspectives organized around a common objective,
and we fully embrace the importance of the power of diversity,
equity and inclusion in driving innovation and performance to help
us consistently exceed the expectations of our guests."
The listing of top employers for Latinos was developed through a
detailed analysis by the magazine's research team and based on
information provided by partners including the Association of
Latino Professionals For America, Prospanica and Latino Corporate
Directors Association, among others. The final list of honorees was
selected using a number of criteria that focused on several areas
of an inclusive workforce, including both internal and external
outreach initiatives; career opportunities; programs to recruit,
promote and retain Latinos; representation in the boardroom and
C-Suite level; percentage of Hispanic employees; and community
service.
In addition to the top employers for Latinos recognition from
Latino Leaders Magazine, Carnival Corporation has received a series
of recognitions for its companywide operations and dedication to
diversity, equity and inclusion, including recent honors from
