Roth Staffing Named to 2026 PEOPLE Companies that Care List
Roth Staffing Companies has been honored by Great Place To Work® and PEOPLE magazine as one of the 2026 PEOPLE® Companies that Care. It marks the firm's fifth time earning a place on the prestigious list, a recognition reserved for organizations that clear rigorous benchmarks and establish themselves among the best companies to work for in the country.
The list is built on a substantial base of employee feedback. This year's rankings draw on more than 1.3 million employee survey responses and data representing the experience of over 7.3 million U.S. employees, with nearly 970,000 responses coming from workers at companies eligible for the list. Beyond the survey data, participating companies also submit essays — validated against employee feedback — that capture how an organization cares for its people, its community, and the planet.
"At Roth Staffing, caring is truly at the heart of our culture and guides how we serve one another, our customers, our communities, and the talent we help connect with meaningful opportunities."
— Adam Roth, CEO, Roth Staffing CompaniesA Culture Rooted in Purpose
Roth Staffing frames the honor as a reflection of its guiding Purpose, "To make life better for the people we serve." That commitment shows up in everyday actions like the Minneapolis team volunteering at a local food bank, and in the way leadership credits the recognition to its workforce. CEO Adam Roth called the award one that "belongs to our coworkers, whose commitment to living our values every day continues to make Roth Staffing an exceptional place to work."
The Companies that Care list is highly competitive, with honorees selected based on their ability to support employees, their families, and the communities where they operate. To even be considered, companies must be Great Place To Work Certified™ and employ at least 10 people in the U.S.
"When employees feel that sense of care, they do incredible things — delivering the crucial results that grow businesses and build new markets."
— Michael C. Bush, CEO, Great Place To WorkAbout Roth Staffing
