In February 2023, and for the third consecutive year, Forbes recognized Robert Half as one of America’s Best Large Employers — and the top-ranked staffing firm for the second year in a row.
The annual ranking is based on an independent survey of approximately 45,000 participants from a wide range of companies with 1,000 or more employees in the U.S. Respondents were asked to rate their willingness to recommend their employer to friends and family, as well as other factors such as working conditions, potential for advancement and company image.
“It’s always an honor to be named as the leading staffing firm on this prestigious list,” said M. Keith Waddell, president and chief executive officer at Robert Half. “The recognition is especially meaningful, as it’s determined by those who know our company best: our employees. Their passion for and commitment to our purpose and values are what set us apart and make Robert Half a great place to work.”
Robert Half Also Ranks Among World’s Best Employers
In October 2022, Forbes named Robert Half one of the World’s Best Employers. This is Forbes’ most prestigious global employer accolade.
The annual list is based on an independent survey of nearly 150,000 employees in 57 countries. Respondents rate their employers in various areas, including image, trust, gender equality, corporate social responsibility, corporate culture and benefits.
Additionally, in May 2023 and for the fifth consecutive year, Robert Half earned the top spot on Forbes’ annual ranking of America’s Best Professional Recruiting Firms. Forbes also recognized Robert Half as one of the top Temporary Staffing and Executive Recruiting Firms.
A strong focus on creating a world-class employee experience
Our reputation as an ethical employer dates back more than 70 years, when Bob and Maxine Half founded the company. In the 1960s, Bob Half helped lead the fight against discriminatory employment practices. Since then, we’ve been setting the standard for employee satisfaction in several key areas:
Gender equality
In January 2023, for the fifth consecutive year, Robert Half and our subsidiary and global consulting firm, Protiviti, were named to the Bloomberg Gender-Equality Index (GEI). The index tracks the performance of companies around the world committed to supporting gender equality through policy development, representation and transparency.
Also, in July 2022, Forbes named Robert Half as one of the Best Employers for Women for the fourth consecutive year.
Through the Global Women’s Employee Network (GWEN) and other initiatives, we’re committed to amplifying women’s voices while creating community and growth opportunities for them at every level.

Everyone is welcome at Robert Half. We believe that hiring underrepresented workers with different perspectives makes us stronger as a business and an employer.
In April 2023, Robert Half was named one of Forbes’ Best Employers for Diversity for the fifth consecutive year. Companies selected for the list are recognized for inclusion efforts related to age, gender, ethnicity, disability, sexual orientation equality and general diversity, as well as feedback from an independent survey.
