Zeeland, Michigan, January 10, 2024 – MillerKnoll, a collective of dynamic design brands, has been acknowledged by Newsweek as one of America’s Greatest Workplaces for Diversity. In its second year, the ranking highlights companies “recognized by their employees for genuinely respecting and valuing individuals from different walks of life.” This is the first time MillerKnoll has been recognized with this achievement.
"Throughout our company's history, embracing different opinions and ideas to solve business and people opportunities has made MillerKnoll a design innovator and a leader in enabling a better world for all. With the belief that we are stronger when every team member feels like they can show up and be their true selves, we are increasing our ability to ensure all associates feel valued and have a sense of belonging," commented Cheryl Kern, MillerKnoll Vice President of Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging (DEIB). "We're proud to be included on Newsweek's list and are excited to continue enhancing our associate's workplace experience."
Newsweek partnered with market data research firm Plant-A Insights to organize the list, compiled based on an examination of publicly available data, interviews with HR professionals, and more than 220,000 independent surveys of U.S. workers. Respondents shared their views on topics related to corporate culture, the working environment, management of diverse workforce, and other subjects within their own companies and those with which they were familiar. The survey resulted in more than 1.5 million company reviews.
MillerKnoll’s recent diversity recognitions include receiving a top score of 100 on the Human Rights Campaign Foundation’s Corporate Equality Index Score for 2023-2024. This marked the company’s 16th consecutive year with the highest score.
Other Newsweek recognitions that MillerKnoll has received include Most Trustworthy Companies in America (2023). Herman Miller, as the company was known before it acquired Knoll and later changed its name to MillerKnoll, was also included among America’s Most Responsible Companies in 2020 and 2021.
