BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
PAREXEL International Corporation (NASDAQ: PRXL), a leading global biopharmaceutical services organization, today announced that for the second year in a row, Forbes has named the Company to its America’s “Best Employers” list. The list recognizes the top 300 midsized employers and top 500 large employers. Results are based on anonymous survey responses from 30,000 U.S. employees, with the most weighted factor being how likely they were to recommend their organizations to others.

PAREXEL is committed to investing in its people and fostering an environment in which employees are engaged and empowered to do their best work in an effort to deliver for clients. To further this goal, PAREXEL provides best-in-class training programs and professional growth opportunities, as well as flexible work options.

About the Forbes America’s Best Employers List Methodology
Now
in its third year, the Forbes ranking of America’s Best Employers is
drawn from an online survey of more than 30,000 employees at companies
with at least 1,000 people in their U.S. operations. Participation in
the survey was voluntary, and respondents were recruited from thousands
of sources to maximize reach and representation. The mix of respondents
(gender, age, region, and ethnicity) in the sample represents American
employees. Each employee surveyed was asked to rank both his own
employer and other employers in the same industry sector. Employees were
also asked how likely they were to recommend their organization to
friends or family; this was the most important factor in determining a
company’s ranking on the list.
