Eaton Earns a Spot on Forbes’ America’s Best Employers for Diversity List

CLEVELAND–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Power management company Eaton has been named among America’s best
employers for diversity by Forbes magazine.

“We are very pleased to be recognized for the progress we’ve made on our
inclusion and diversity journey and we’re committed to getting better

Diversity, Eaton. “It’s important to our organization that all employees
experience a culture of inclusion where everyone’s uniqueness is
appreciated and there is a sense of belonging that allows everyone to
contribute their best.”

recruited from thousands of sources to maximize reach and representation
of the U.S. workforce. A company’s score is determined by three parts,
direct employee recommendations, a public perception score and an index
of objective and publicly available diversity key performance indicators.
