FedEx wins awards for work environment
FedEx has again been named one of the ‘Best companies to work for’ in 2008 according to rankings released by the Great Places to Work Institute. In 10 of the past 11 years FedEx has been recognized as one of the “best companies” to work for as well being consistently ranked in Fortune’s ‘Global Most Admired Companies’. The Fortune award extends the list of global accolades FedEx has received.
In Asia Pacific, FedEx was named among the top 10 “Best Employers” in China, Korea, Japan in 2007 by Hewitt Associates. Australia made the list but was just outside the top ten. The American Chamber of Commerce in Hong Kong and the South China Morning Post also recognized FedEx as a “Best Company for Women” at its Women of Influence Awards.
“This honour not only reflects the commitment of our employees in the U.S., but of all employees in the entire FedEx network,” said David L. Cunningham, Jr., president, FedEx Express Asia Pacific. “In Asia, we place our employees first and it is the investments in our employees that drives their dedication to make every FedEx experience outstanding for our customers and that is what differentiates us from the competition.
