California Water Service Group Named Great Place to Work® for Ninth Consecutive Year

SAN JOSE, Calif., Aug. 29, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- For the ninth consecutive year, the Great Place to Work® Institute has named California Water Service Group (Group) (NYSE: CWT) a Great Place to Work.

The Great Place to Work award is based wholly on current, full-time employees’ feedback about their experience working at the company.

Kropelnicki, Group Chairman and CEO. “At California Water Service Group, we believe that when we take care of our employees, they can focus on taking care of our customers and communities, and we will continue working hard to be a great place for our employees to work.”
