Forbes’ America’s Best-in-State Employers ranks the academic health system as one of the top 25 workplaces in the state and in the top five in its category.
Tampa General Hospital (TGH) has again been named one of Florida’s leading workplaces in Forbes’ America’s Best-in-State Employers rankings for 2023 making its third successive appearance among the top 25 companies in Florida on the list. The academic health system ranked in the top five companies in the health care and social industry sector and placed 24th overall.
“As the region’s leading academic health system, we focus on our team members and their well-being first and foremost,” said John Couris, president and CEO of Tampa General Hospital. “We foster a culture that sees every team member for who they are, understands what they bring to the table — be it their unique perspectives, lived experiences or individual needs — and prioritize connecting them with the support, resources and opportunities that will help them achieve their full potential.”
Forbes Magazine once again partnered with Statista, a leading research and statistics company, to identify America’s Best-in-State Employers from an independent survey of employees working for companies with more than 500 employees in the U.S. The evaluation was made on a state-by-state basis and survey respondents were asked to provide recommendations in three distinct criteria — in-state indirect, national in-industry indirect and direct recommendations. Direct recommendations are from Tampa General team members and indirect recommendations are from non-Tampa General employees both in Florida and within the health care sector nationally.

On a state-by-state basis, survey respondents were asked several questions about work-related topics regarding their current employers, such as working conditions, diversity, salary, potential for development and company image.
“Our team understands that a strong culture of belonging rooted in kindness, authenticity, transparency and vulnerability, and supported by investments in our team members’ growth and development, creates a collaborative team who provides world-class care to Tampa Bay residents and beyond,” said Qualenta Kivett, executive vice president and chief people and talent officer at Tampa General Hospital. “Tampa General’s inclusion on this list is a testament to the significant progress we’ve made in creating an environment we are not just proud to work in, but proud to recommend to others within our state and more broadly across our industry and country.”
Tampa General continues to innovate and invest in new programs that support team members’ personal and professional development, ensuring they have the resources they need to excel at work and in their personal lives.
