ORLAND PARK, IL – September 1, 2022 – The Horton Group, one of the largest privately-held insurance brokers in the United States, has been named in Business Insurance’s annual “Best Places to Work in Insurance” program. This award recognizes employers for their outstanding performance in establishing workplaces where employees can thrive, enjoy their work and help their companies grow.
“We work hard to always provide an excellent experience for our employees, and we are honored to be professionally recognized for our efforts,” said Dan Horton, CEO of The Horton Group. “We intend, as an organization, to invest in growth and continue to find success because we work together.”
Best Places to Work in Insurance is an annual sponsored content feature presented by the Custom Publishing unit of Business Insurance and Best Companies Group that lists the agents, brokers, insurance companies and other providers with the highest levels of employee engagement and satisfaction. Harrisburg, Pa.-based Best Companies Group identifies the leading employers in the insurance industry by conducting a free two-part assessment of each company. The first part is a questionnaire completed by the employer about company policies, practices and demographics. The second part is a confidential employee survey on engagement and satisfaction.
The program divides employers into the categories of small, 25-249 employees; medium, 250-999 employees; and large, 1,000 or more employees. This year’s report features 100 companies of various sizes, from 25 employees to more than 4,000.
The ranking and profiles of the winning companies will be unveiled in the November issue of Business Insurance and online at BusinessInsurance.com.
