Fluor Corporation (NYSE: FLR) announced today that the company was
recognized by FORTUNE Magazine in its 2013 “World’s
Most Admired Companies” list earning the top ranking in the
engineering and construction sector. For the second year in a row, Fluor
earned the top designation among its peers in the E&C sector.
Additionally, Fluor ranked
in the overall top 10 in the “Global Competitiveness” category along
with other respected companies such as Caterpillar, Google and
ExxonMobil.
“It is an incredible honor to not only rank at the top of our industry,
but to also be recognized in the Global Competitiveness category among
such well known and leading-edge companies,” said David Seaton, Fluor
Corporation’s chairman and chief executive officer. “Fluor has a strong
tradition of executing complex international work and every year we
deliver approximately 1,000 projects around the globe. We are able to
accomplish our work through a very talented and dedicated global
workforce and I want to congratulate them on this year’s FORTUNE
rankings.”
This year marks the 30th anniversary of FORTUNE Magazine’s list of
companies ranked by reputation. Since 1997, FORTUNE has collaborated
with The Hay Group, a global management consulting firm, to identify,
select and rank the World’s Most Admired Companies based on the business
practices, innovative spirit and social responsibility that make
companies which are chosen for the list both highly regarded and
successful. FORTUNE’s “Most Admired Companies” list is considered a
definitive “report card” on corporate reputations. The rankings are
compiled by measuring corporate reputation and performance against nine
key attributes: innovation, people management, use of corporate assets,
social responsibility, quality of management, financial soundness,
long-term investment, quality of products and services and global
competitiveness.
The 2013 list of the Most Admired Companies is featured in FORTUNE
Magazine’s March issue. For more information, please visit http://money.cnn.com/magazines/fortune/most-admired.
