NJ TRANSIT NAMED BY FORBES AS ONE OF NEW JERSEY’S BEST EMPLOYERS FOR FOURTH STRAIGHT YEAR

Agency Ranks First in the State in the “Transportation and Logistics” Category

August 20, 2024

NEWARK, NJ – For the fourth straight year, Forbes has named NJ TRANSIT to its renowned America’s Best-in-State Employers 2024 list. For the second straight year, NJ TRANSIT again ranked #1 in the Transportation and Logistics category. The survey, according to Forbes, measures leading companies from around the world to identify those best-liked by employees. This marks the fifth time in the last seven years that NJ TRANSIT has been recognized as one of New Jersey’s best places to work. This recognition builds upon NJ TRANSIT’s standard of excellence after being recognized nationally as one of Forbes’ America’s Best Employers 2024, as well as the winner of the coveted 2023 American Public Transportation Association (APTA) award for Outstanding Public Transportation System last year. 

 

“Being named a top employer in New Jersey for the fourth consecutive year is a reflection of the hard work and dedication of our entire NJ TRANSIT team,” said NJ TRANSIT President & CEO Kevin S. Corbett. “We are proud to be an employer of choice in New Jersey, and remain committed to maintaining a supportive and inclusive work environment that empowers our employees to deliver the highest standard of service to our customers.”

Forbes 6th annual America's Best-in-State Employers list was created by partnering with market research firm Statista to anonymously survey over 160,000 full and part-time workers at companies across the United States with more than 500 employees. The consideration of survey data from the past 3 years allowed agencies that consistently perform well to distinguish themselves from organizations that may have only had one good year. An employer's final score is determined on a state-by-state basis and is built upon two types of employee evaluations:

  • Personal Evaluations: Employees' willingness to recommend their own employers to friends and family

  • Public Evaluations: Recommendations from friends and family members of employees, or members of the public who work in the same industry.
