Fluor Corporation (NYSE: FLR) recently announced that it was named to the inaugural Forbes JUST 100 list. Fluor was also ranked as the most just company in the Capital Goods category.
“We are honored to make the Forbes inaugural JUST 100 list of top companies,” said David Seaton, chairman and CEO of Fluor. “The recognition reaffirms the values that have contributed to Fluor’s 100-plus year global legacy and why we are recognized as an employer of choice in our industry.”
The Forbes JUST 100 list is the first-ever annual ranking of how America’s top companies perform on the issues Americans care most about according to Forbes. The list was compiled through one of the largest surveys ever conducted on attitudes towards corporate behavior involving 50,000 Americans over the last 18 months.
Forbes worked with the Independent Research Organization NORC at the University of Chicago and with JUST Capital, an independent nonprofit 501(c)(3), founded in 2013. JUST Capital is considered to be the definitive source of information and rankings on how large publicly-traded corporations measure up against the American people’s definition of just business behavior.
The top six issues ranked highly by the public include the following: providing fair pay for industry and job level; non-discrimination in hiring, firing and promotion practices; providing a safe workplace; following laws and regulations; respecting workers; and creating jobs in the U.S. Each company’s score was weighted to reflect the overall priorities of the American public.
