Horizon Blue Cross Blue Shield of New Jersey has been chosen by Diversity MBA Magazine as one of the nation’s top employers for diverse managers and women.  The magazine ranked Horizon BCBSNJ No. 6 among its national list of Best Places for Diverse Managers and Women to Work and ranked Horizon BNCBSNJ as the No. 1 Regional Company.  This is the sixth consecutive year that Horizon BCBSNJ has been honored by Diversity MBA Magazine for its diverse workplace policies and programs.

Companies are selected based on scores for representation, recruitment, workplace inclusion and retention, succession planning and accountability. While 600 companies registered to participate in the survey on which the Best Places list is based, Horizon BCBSNJ was among only 289 to meet the list’s criteria and qualify for selection.

“Horizon is proud to be recognized by Diversity MBA Magazine as setting the standard for excellence in creating a work environment that fosters inclusion and develops the full potential of our culturally diverse workers,” said Alison Banks-Moore, Chief Diversity Officer at Horizon BCBSNJ.

“The companies selected are those that clearly value intentional strategies based on accountability, succession planning, representation, workplace inclusion, recruitment and board diversity,” said Pam McElvane, CEO & Publisher of Diversity MBA. “We also recognize the impact of participants’ diversity and inclusion strategies that allow and encourage women and managers of diverse backgrounds to excel and develop into leadership roles.”
