Bronson Healthcare Named to Forbes 2023 list of America’s Best Employers
Kalamazoo, Mich. -- Forbes recently released its 2023 list of "America's Best-In-State Employers." In Michigan, Bronson Healthcare is the 3rd highest ranking employer among hospitals and health systems and is ranked 17th overall across all employer categories and industries in the state. This is the second year in a row that Bronson has earned this accolade. In 2022, Bronson was ranked in the state as the 4th highest hospital and healthcare system and 39th employer overall.

Bill Manns, Bronson Healthcare President and CEO, says, “Receiving this recognition from Forbes for two years in a row is indicative of the positive and inclusive culture we enjoy throughout our regional healthcare system. We are extremely invested in our people and their development so they are empowered to provide exceptional care experiences for our patients. It is an honor for Bronson to be recognized on such a large scale as a top employer.”
To create its annual list, Forbes partnered with market research firm Statista to survey a representative sample of employees working full- or part-time across the United States at companies with more than 500 employees. All surveys were anonymous, allowing participants to openly share their opinions and rate their employers on a variety of criteria. Participants were asked whether or not they would recommend their employer to friends and family, and to evaluate their employer based on criteria including working conditions, diversity, salary, potential for development and company image. Statista also asked respondents to nominate organizations in industries outside their own. Read more about the methodology here.
In addition to the Forbes recognition, Bronson Healthcare is ranked by Newsweek as one of America’s Greatest Workplaces for Women (2023) and by the National Association for Business Resources as one of the Top 101 Best and Brightest Companies to Work For (2023).
