Hard Rock International has been named by Forbes as the highest-ranking company in the Travel & Leisure industry in its list of America’s Best Large Employers for 2021.

Hard Rock placed 20th overall among the 500 companies included on the list across multiple industries, but was the highest-ranked among those within Travel & Leisure, a section which spans hotels, resorts, gaming, recreation and entertainment entities.

Partnering with market research firm Statista, Forbes compiled the list by surveying 50,000 Americans working for businesses with at least 1000 employees, asking participants how willing they would be to recommend their own employers to friends and family.

The list represents companies who strive to generate the best possible workplace for their employees, with a particular focus this year on those who continued to engage with and hire employees during the COVID-19 pandemic.

“As a global company in 70 countries with more than 20,000 team members right here in the US, we are honoured to be included in this year’s list of America’s Best Large Employers,” said Hard Rock International chairman Jim Allen.

“We are grateful to work alongside so many passionate and dedicated team members during one of the most challenging times in recent memory. This recognition reinforces our belief that our team members are the most valuable part of what makes Hard Rock a great place to work.”
