For the Antigo Times

Financial services firm Edward Jones recently was named one of America’s best employers for diversity by Forbes magazine.

Forbes and research firm Statista compiled the list of 250 companies after surveying 30,000 U.S. employees, asking about issues related to diversity, gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation, age and disability. The gender split of companies’ management teams and boards, and whether a company actively communicates about diversity, also were factored in to the ranking. Edward Jones ranked No. 68 on the list.
