Eight members of the North American electrical industry appear among Forbes’ list of the top 500 large employers in 2018. The companies and their ranking are as follows: Eaton (#310), Emerson Electric (#123), General Electric (#254), Graybar (#356), Philips (#466), Schneider Electric (#82) and Siemens (#73) and Southwire (#297).Almost 30,000 employees at companies with at least 1,000 people were surveyed for the list. The survey was conducted with global digital data collection partners who use innovative technology and proven sampling methodologies to facilitate a deep understanding of consumer opinions and behaviour. Participation in the survey was voluntary, and respondents were recruited from thousands of sources to maximize reach and representation.

Besides more than 30 detailed questions about working conditions, the employees were asked to determine, on a scale of zero to 10, how likely they were to recommend their employer to someone else. And further, how they feel about the other employers in their respective industries. The mix of respondents (gender, age, region, and ethnicity) in the sample represents American employees.

In total 1,000 employers have been awarded. Of those awarded 500 are large employers and 500 are midsize employers.See the full list: https://www.forbes.com/best-employers/list/
