BOSTON , MA — VA Boston Healthcare System was named one of the 2024 Top Places to Work in Massachusetts in the 17th annual, employee-based survey from The Boston Globe. The “Top Places to

Work” issue published online at https://www.bostonglobe.com/magazine/top-places-work/2024/ the evening of Wednesday, Dec. 4, 2024, and will publish in Globe Magazine Sunday, Dec. 8. “Top

Places to Work 2024” recognizes the most admired workplaces in the state voted on by the people who know them best — their employees. The survey measures employee opinions about their

company’s direction, execution, connection, management, work, pay and benefits, and engagement. The employers are placed into one of four groups: small, with 50 to 99 employees; medium, with

100 to 249 workers; large, with 250 to 999; and largest, with 1,000 or more. VA Boston HCS was ranked 22nd in the largest category. This makes six years running and 13 of the past 15 years

that VA Boston HCS has been named a Top Place to Work. “This is an incredible achievement made possible by employees working to give Veterans their best, every day,” said Vincent Ng,

director of VA Boston HCS. “I’m grateful to serve Veterans alongside such committed professionals, and I’m excited to see what our future holds as we strive for continuous improvement in

providing Veterans with the exceptional care they’ve earned.”  More than 20% of VA Boston HCS employees are Veterans themselves – Veterans serving other Veterans. “The best employers pay

attention to the many ways work changes – and the many ways it stays the same – and figure out how to keep people engaged and motivated through it all,” said Katie Johnston, the Globe’s Top

Places to Work editor. “Top Places to Work” online extras include sortable rankings and features that showcase companies investing in their entire, multigenerational workforce, such as the

critical role mentorship plays in retention at VA Boston HCS. The rankings in “Top Places to Work” are based on confidential survey information collected by Energage – formerly

WorkplaceDynamics – an independent company specializing in employee engagement and retention, from nearly 68,000 employees at 323 Massachusetts organizations. ABOUT VA BOSTON HEALTHCARE
