Company Recognized for Strong Commitment to
Diversity, Equity and Inclusion
RESTON,
Va., June 1, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Forbes has
named global consulting and technology services provider ICF
(NASDAQ: ICFI) one of America's Best Employers for Diversity for
the third straight year.
"At ICF, we celebrate our differences in who we are, what we
have experienced, and how we think," said John Wasson, ICF chair and chief executive
officer. "We constantly work to ensure we are a company where
everyone feels welcomed and valued; where they can bring their
whole, authentic selves; and where they have a voice. Through these
unique viewpoints and experiences, we are bound by a single set of
values and a common purpose: to build a more prosperous and
resilient world for all. And our commitment to inclusion is a key
element to how we fulfill that purpose."
To create the list of top employers for diversity, Forbes
partnered with market research firm Statista to survey more than
45,000 Americans working for businesses with at least 1,000
employees. Respondents were asked to rate their organizations on
criteria such as age, gender, ethnicity, disability and LGBTQ+
equality, as well as general diversity. Diversity-related best
practices—such as the presence of employee resource groups,
publication of diversity data and percentage of women in board and
executive roles—were also considered. The top 500 companies made
the final list.
ICF ranked 14th on this year's national list and
2nd for professional services companies. Earlier this
year, ICF was also included on Forbes' America's Best Management
Consulting Firms list for the eighth year in a row.

impact. The company combines deep domain expertise with
leading-edge technologies and advanced analytics to design and
implement transformative projects across highly diverse industries
