DESCRIPTION:

NEW BRITAIN, Conn., November 3, 2021 /3BL Media/ - Stanley Black & Decker has been named one of Forbes' 2021 "World's Top Female-Friendly Companies," a list based on sentiment compiled from a women-only survey of 85,000 female employees from 300 global companies.

Stanley Black & Decker ranked 10 in the "Semiconductors, Electronics, Electrical Engineering, Technology Hardware & Equipment" category and 163 out of 300 companies overall.

"Stanley Black & Decker is committed to providing a diverse, equitable and inclusive workplace that empowers our employees," said Stanley Black & Decker CEO Jim Loree. "We're mindful of the social inequities that disproportionately impact our female employees which have been exacerbated by the pandemic.

If there's one thing COVID has taught us, it's that we can be more successful by adopting an inclusive and flexible work environment."

Forbes partnered with research firm, Statista, to compile the ranking via an anonymous women-only survey measured by direct and indirect evaluations from employees, a public opinion score generated by how companies are perceived in terms of gender equality, and a leadership score based on the share of women in leadership positions. The survey focused on several aspects of the female employees' experience, including overall satisfaction, reputation for gender equity among competitors, efforts to promote female empowerment, gender representation and workplace equality. The complete list features 300 global companies.
