The world’s largest cruise company, Carnival Corporation, has been honored by Forbes as one of the Best Employers for Diversity. The company operates nine different cruise brands and is ranked among the top 15 employers in travel and leisure in the United States, according to Forbes.
The award comes when Carnival Corporation has been repeatedly named one of the best employers for minorities in the United States. Only a month ago, the company was named among the best places to work for Latinos by Latino Leaders Magazine.
Carnival Corporation One of The Best Places To Work
Besides offering some epic cruise vacations, Carnival Corporation is also one of the best places to work in the United States. For the fourth consecutive year, Forbes named the biggest cruise company globally as one of the Best Employers for Diversity.
Each year, Forbes and Statista Inc., a leading statistics portal and industry ranking provider, compile a list of the best employers in several different industries, including travel and leisure.
In Forbes’ fourth annual survey, Carnival Corporation was ranked among the top 15 employers in travel and leisure.
Diversity is one area where Carnival Corporation has been putting more importance in the last years. A significant area of importance for a company that operates globally with brands such as Carnival Cruise Line, Holland America Line, Princess Cruises, and Seabourn in the U.S., along with AIDA Cruises, Cunard, Costa Cruises, P&O Cruises UK, and P&O Cruises Australia.
“At Carnival Corporation, diversity of thinking is a business imperative and we fully embrace the importance of fostering a diverse workforce at all levels, driving innovation and an inclusive and supportive work environment for all of our colleagues,” said Roger Frizzell, chief communications officer for Carnival Corporation.
“We are honored to again be recognized by Forbes as a top employer for diversity in the U.S., as it underscores our highest responsibility and top priority, which is compliance, environmental protection and the health, safety and well-being of our guests, the people in the communities we visit, and our shipboard and shoreside personnel.”
