METTAWA, Ill., Nov. 09, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Brunswick Corporation (NYSE:BC) has been named by Forbes to the 2020 list of America’s Best Employers for Veterans.  From the thousands of companies that were considered for this honor, only 150 made the final list.  Brunswick is ranked No. 43 overall and No. 1 in the Engineering and Manufacturing category.

“We are honored to be named to the list of America’s Best Employers for Veterans,” said Brenna Preisser, President - Business Acceleration & Chief People and Strategy Officer.  “This award recognizes our commitment to the veteran community as part of our broader diversity, equality and inclusion efforts.  Many of our global manufacturing facilities have developed internal veteran groups that participate in community outreach events that are very important to us.  The unique perspectives and capabilities our veteran employees make us a stronger enterprise.”

Companies designated as America’s Best Employers for Veterans are chosen based on an independent survey from a sample of 5,000 U.S. veterans working for companies employing at least 1,000 people in their U.S. operations who were asked to rate their employers on a variety of general and veteran specific topics.

Earlier this year, Brunswick was named by Forbes and Statista to its list of the Best Employers for Diversity and the Best Employers for Women. In 2019, for the second consecutive year, Forbes Magazine named Brunswick Corporation among America’s Best Employers.
