St. Luke’s University Health Network is the top-ranked Lehigh Valley-based employer in Forbes Magazine’s ranking of employers in Pennsylvania, which was published in August.

Forbes said it partnered with market research firm Statista to survey 70,000 workers at companies (minimum of 500 employees) in 50 states and the District of Columbia.

Forbes’ best-in-state recognition is one of numerous employer-related distinctions St. Luke’s has earned recently.

In July, St. Luke’s was named one of America’s Best Employers for Women by Forbes. St. Luke’s was the only employer in the Lehigh Valley to be named to the list and was one of only two healthcare employers in Pennsylvania to receive the designation.
