Mutual of Omaha has been named on the Forbes list of Best
Employers for Diversity 2024. Mutual is ranked 6th among 500
companies and is listed 2nd among companies in the insurance
industry.
This award is presented by Forbes and Statista Inc., the
world-leading statistics portal and industry ranking provider. The

The Best Employers for Diversity 2024 were identified in an
independent survey from a sample of over 170,000 U.S.-based
employees working for companies employing at least 1,000 people
within the U.S. The evaluation was based on three different
criteria:
- Personal Recommendations: Employees were asked to give
their opinions on a series of statements regarding age, gender,
ethnicity, disability, LGBTQIA+ and general diversity in their
current workplace.
- Public Recommendations: Participants were also given the
chance to evaluate other employers in their industries that stand
out either positively or negatively regarding diversity.
- Key Performance Indicators: Extensive research was
carried out to evaluate how companies fared across a range of
diversity-related best practices. This included things like
representation, accountability and communication, internal
initiatives and external involvement.
“We are ecstatic to be recognized on the Forbes list of the Best
Employers for Diversity,” said Gail Graeve, vice president of
Social Impact at Mutual of Omaha. “We believe an environment where
each person feels a sense of belonging and respect is simply the
right thing to do – and ultimately helps us serve our customers
