Coats among the Best Workplaces in Manufacturing & Production

Coats Group plc has been selected for the 2024 Fortune Best Workplaces in Manufacturing & Production™ List by Great Place To Work® and Fortune magazine.

Great Place To Work and Fortune annually select top workplaces in Manufacturing and Production that are dedicated to creating exceptional workplace cultures. The team at Coats has once again been recognised for its commitment to prioritising its people, fostering a culture of trust, and empowering colleagues worldwide to achieve their full potential.

The Best Workplaces in Manufacturing & Production award is based on analysis of survey responses from over 96,000 current employees at Great Place To Work Certified™ companies in the manufacturing and production industry. The survey also considers the breadth and impact of company workplace programmes. Organisations are assessed on their efforts to create great workplaces and positively impact people and communities across multiple countries.

“We are proud to have once again been recognised as one of the top workplaces worldwide, reflecting the strength and value of the inclusive culture fostered across Coats,” said Group Chief Human Resources Officer Farnaz Ranjbar. “Our commitment to create a more inclusive, diverse and equitable workplace at Coats is unrelenting, and it is thanks to our dedicated employees from all around the globe that we have been placed on this list. We remain focused on forging strong long-term relationships and delivering value for all stakeholders.”

“Congratulations to the Best Workplaces in Manufacturing & Production,” said Michael C. Bush, CEO of Great Place To Work. “These companies not only outperform the average for their industry but have created workplaces that outshine the average in every category, proving the importance of building trust with workers, no matter the industry.”

Great Place To Work selected the 2024 Fortune Best Workplaces in Manufacturing & Production by analysing confidential survey responses from more than 1.3 million employees in the U.S. in 2023 and 2024. Coats India and Honduras were also named among the local Best Workplaces in Manufacturing & Production, reaffirming the successful impact of the company’s approach to culture.
