Southwire Announces Placement On America's Greatest Workplaces For Women List

The recognition was shared during Southwire's Women's Day event, held at the University of West Georgia, where the company gathered to celebrate Women's History Month, honor the contributions of women throughout the organization and recognize progress and opportunity across the manufacturing industry.

Newsweek announced the“America's Greatest Workplaces for Women 2026” rankings in February, recognizing companies that foster strong and supportive environments for women.

The recognition is not application-based but instead determined through an independent, data-driven study that analyzed feedback from more than 89,000 women employees and 1.1 million company reviews. The recognition also factors in more than 37 million data points across 120 key workplace performance indicators related to areas such as leadership representation, workplace equity and employee satisfaction.

A companywide livestream connected people across various Southwire locations, resulting in 900-plus Southwire team members, customers and nonprofit partners registering to join the event either virtually or in person.

This year's Women's History Month theme,“ Leading Change: Women Shaping a Sustainable Future,” guided the conversations during the event as team members, representatives from UWG, Atlanta Braves, the American Heart Association and many more explored topics centered on development, wellbeing and continuous learning.

The event also featured sessions covering a range of subjects, including leadership development, women's health, customer engagement and financial wellness. Each discussion was designed to equip team members with practical insights while fostering open dialogue about the role women play in shaping a more sustainable future for Southwire and the communities it serves.

Designed to inspire and engage, raise awareness and drive long-term impact, the event highlighted Southwire's continued commitment to inclusion and its essential connection to the company's long-term sustainability strategy.

As a certified sustainable event, the program also reflected Southwire's dedication to operating responsibly while investing in its people.

Newsweek's recognition underscores Southwire's ongoing efforts to cultivate a workplace culture where everyone has the opportunity to lead, grow and make an impact.
