Lockton named by Forbes as a Best Employer in America for third straight year

KANSAS CITY, Mo., May 2, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- For the third straight year, Lockton has been named to Forbes' list of America's Best Employers in the mid-size company category. The list, which contains only 500 mid-size employers nationwide, is compiled based on a survey that asks employees how likely they are to recommend their employers to someone else. In addition, survey participants are asked how they feel about other employers in their industry.

"This is an extraordinary honor to again be named by Forbes as one of America's Best Employers," said Peter Clune, Lockton's U.S. president and chief operating officer. "The Forbes recognition is particularly special because it is based on feedback from our Associates and others within our industry. Our goal is to be the absolute best place for our Associates to build a career. This accolade affirms that we continue to create a culture where our Associates thrive."

This comes on the heels of some other great recognition for Lockton including:
