Which company was named Forbes’ best employer worldwide in 2022?

Samsung Electronics was named Forbes’ best employer worldwide in 2022.

Forbes’ 2022 World’s Best Employers ranking placed Samsung Electronics first. The list was based on a survey of employees and workers, who assessed their employers and other companies on issues including workplace conditions, development opportunities and willingness to recommend the organization.

Samsung Electronics is a South Korean technology company best known for smartphones, televisions, home appliances, displays and semiconductors. Its global workforce and broad product range helped make it visible to respondents across many markets.

This award is not the same as Forbes’ largest-company rankings. Forbes’ Global 2000 measures corporate scale using financial data, while the World’s Best Employers list is primarily perception-based. Samsung’s result therefore describes employer reputation in that survey, not a claim that it was the world’s most valuable or most profitable company.
