Flowserve Corp. announced it has been named as number 13 on Forbes’ list of the World’s Top Female Friendly Companies 2021.
This prestigious list is presented by Forbes and Statista Inc. and is based on survey results from 85,000 women in 40 countries, including direct feedback from Flowserve female employees. Survey participants were invited to evaluate how their company supports women inside and outside the workplace, including opportunities for advancement, pay equity, balanced recruitment, and other related topics. This listing also takes into account gender diversity on the Board of Directors and Executive Leadership Team.
“We’ve been on a journey to strengthen our culture of inclusion at Flowserve. To us, this means fostering a workplace culture where different perspectives and opinions are valued,” said Scott Rowe, president and chief executive officer. “Being recognized as a Top Female Friendly Company by Forbes demonstrates the progress we’ve made and will continue to drive.”
