The 25 World's Best Workplaces are being recognized for creating globally exceptional employee experiences, high-trust relationships, and workplace cultures that are fair and equitable for all. GPTW identified the World's Best Workplaces™ by surveying 6.2 million employees worldwide about the key factors that create great workplaces and analyzing company workplace programs impacting 18 million employees globally.

This year marks Dow's debut on the list of the World's Best Workplaces. Through the 2023 cycle, Dow was certified as a Great Place to Work in 13 countries and ranked on 10 national Best Workplaces lists.

"This is a tremendous honor for Team Dow," said Jim Fitterling, Dow chair and CEO. "We're immensely proud of our employees around the globe who have propelled us onto this list for the first time. This is their achievement, a reflection of their voices, and testimony to their efforts every day to make Dow a truly great place to work."

Alveda Williams, Ph.D., Dow chief inclusion officer, pointed out that the Great Place to Work® World's Best Workplaces list is highly competitive. "Even being eligible for consideration as a World's Best Workplace is something Team Dow can be proud of," she said. "But ranking on this exclusive list is one the highest honors because it is the ultimate reflection of our global company – earned by our colleagues in every region committed to making their workplace a great place for all."

To be considered for the list, companies must have already been a Great Place To Work Certified™ organization. They must also be identified as outstanding global employers by appearing on at least five Best Workplaces™ lists in Asia, Europe, Latin America, Africa, North America or Australia during 2022 or early 2023. Companies must have at least 5,000 employees worldwide with at least 40% (or 5,000) of those employees located outside the headquarters country.
