Fortune Names Scripps Health to Its 100 Best Companies List
Scripps Health has been named one of the top employers in the nation by Fortune magazine for the 17th time. The San Diego organization is the only employer in San Diego County included in the 28th annual 100 Best Companies to Work For list, which was released today.
“Our people are our greatest strength, and we’re proud to continually invest highly in their development, well-being and success,” said Chris Van Gorder, Scripps Health president and CEO. “It’s not surprising that Scripps’ employee turnover rates and job vacancy rates are well below health care industry norms. We take great care of our people and they take great care of our patients.”
With more than 20,000 employees and clinicians across San Diego County, Scripps has created a high-performing workforce by improving workplace safety, supporting workers in both their personal and professional lives, offering professional development opportunities and empowering staff to devise new solutions.
The Fortune 100 Best Companies to Work For list is highly competitive. Companies are assessed on their ability to create a great employee experience that cuts across job level, business unit, race, gender, age, disability status, or any aspect of employee identity.
Scripps treats more than 600,000 patients annually through the dedication of 3,000 affiliated physicians and more than 17,000 employees among its five acute-care hospital campuses, home health care services, 30 outpatient centers and clinics, and hundreds of affiliated physician offices throughout the region.
