H2O/Overgroup Named One of the Best Workplaces for Women

ATLANTA–(BUSINESS WIRE)–H2O/Overgroup is honored to announce that after surveying more than
135,600 female employees, Great Place to Work® and Fortune have
recognized H2O/Overgroup as one of the 100 Best Workplaces for Women. We
consider this honor exceptionally notable because the recognition is
based on internal employees’ own assessments of the quality and fairness
of our workplace.

“We’re humbled by this honor,” says Brent Maropis, CEO of H2O/Overgroup.
“At H2O, we focus on hiring people who believe in our mission and embody
our company values. Ranking on Fortune and Great Place to Work’s
100 Best Workplaces for Women list validates this strategy for creating
an inclusive work environment and a team that rallies behind our
mission.”

H2O/Overgroup and the 99 other winning companies were selected based on
evaluations by over 135,600 female employees on Great Place to Work’s
Trust Index© employee survey. Women considered everything from the
fairness of their company’s promotions, to who has access to information
and leadership, the level of support for employees’ personal lives, and
the degree of inclusiveness and connection they feel with colleagues.
Scores also take into account how well-represented women are within the
workforce, management and executive positions; how positively women
experience their workplace’s fairness; and how favorable women’s
experiences are compared to the 138,000 men also surveyed.

Across the 637 companies studied, Great Place to Work found that men’s
and women’s experiences were most likely to differ on measures assessing
the fairness of their workplaces – as well as several measures rating
their access to communication and involvement in workplace
decision-making. By contrast, researchers’ analysis of women and men’s
results show that the 100 winning workplaces create a more consistent
and inclusive environment for both genders across a range of day-to-day
trust-building behaviors, including employees’ access to special
recognition, fair treatment regardless of role, and management’s
approachability.

“The companies on this list are leaders who recognize the strategic
importance of creating workplaces that attract and support the best
talent in their industries,” says Michael Bush, CEO of Great Place to
Work® United States. “While specialized programs to support women’s
equal access to opportunity are often strategic, in many ways it is just
as important – and challenging for leaders — to establish a pattern of
inclusiveness throughout everyday workplace interactions since these
rely on everyone to overcome their blind spots. Ranking on this list a
great indicator that these companies’ efforts to create great workplaces
are resonating throughout their teams.”

The 100 Best Workplaces for Women ranking is one of a series of rankings
by Great Place to Work® and Fortune based upon employee survey
feedback from published Great Place to Work® Reviews.
