Carnival Corporation named one of America’s best large employers

The world’s largest cruise company has been recognised for the third time on Forbes’ annual list of best large employers. This is based on employee feedback and public perception.

Presented in partnership with Statista, the Forbes listing of the best U.S. large employers is compiled annually based on employee recommendations and public perception scores shared anonymously. In Forbes’ seventh annual survey, Carnival Corporation was among the top 500 employers with more than 5,000 employees.

“As a company, our highest responsibility and top priorities are compliance, environmental protection and the health, safety and well-being of our guests, the people in the communities we visit, and our crew and shoreside employees,” says Roger Frizzell, chief communications officer for Carnival Corporation. “With these core values as our foundation, we make it a priority to provide a supportive work environment, operating with integrity, trust and respect for each other. We are honoured to be recognised once again by Forbes as one of America’s best large employers. This recognition underscores our deep commitment to promoting a positive and empowering corporate culture for all of our shipboard and shoreside employees, and our success is a direct result of their commitment to consistently exceeding the expectations of our guests.”

In addition Carnival was recently named among the top U.S. companies on Forbes’ annual list of the Best Employers for Diversity and within America’s Best Employers for Women for 2020.

Carnival was also recently recognised for its commitment to corporate social responsibility leadership by Newsweek on its second annual list of America’s Most Responsible Companies for 2021.
