Recognizes Ribbon's commitment to creating a
workplace where women can thrive
PLANO,
Texas, Feb. 23, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Ribbon
Communications Inc. (Nasdaq: RBBN), a global provider of real
time communications technology and IP optical networking solutions
to many of the world's largest service providers, enterprises, and
critical infrastructure operators to modernize and protect their
networks, today announced that it has been recognized as one of
America's Greatest Workplaces for Women 2024 by Newsweek and
Plant-A Insights Group. The list recognizes the 1,000 U.S.-based
companies who ranked highest when evaluated on their performance
across various metrics crucial to women in the workforce.
"Creating an environment where women can thrive at every level
is a key corporate KPI for us, and this recognition highlights our
team's progress and dedication to accomplishing this goal," said
Petrena Ferguson, Ribbon's Senior
Vice President of Human Resources. "In addition to getting high
marks for our flexibility and inclusiveness, we've developed
programs that include women-centered leadership courses augmented
by a women's business community open to all. It's an innovative
approach that's particularly unusual for a company of our size, and
it's making a difference in our employees' lives. I'm extremely
proud of what we've accomplished so far and look forward to
building on these efforts."
The recognition stems from a rigorous study conducted by Plant-A
Insights, a leading data research firm. With input from over
142,000 female employees and a pool of 848,000 company reviews, the
study stands as one of the largest independent assessments of
workplace environment in the United
States.
"Despite advancements in workplace equality, women still
encounter significant barriers in terms of leadership
opportunities, fair compensation and other forms of discrimination.
Recognizing and addressing these challenges are crucial for
progress," said Newsweek Global Editor in Chief Nancy Cooper. "It is important to highlight
companies that are leading the way in fostering a culture of
equality and respect. To that end, Newsweek and Plant-A Insights
are proud to introduce America's Greatest Workplaces 2024 For
Women."
