HONOLULU (HawaiiNewsNow) – Each year Hawaii Business Magazine honors the Best Places to Work.
One of the firms honored for 2026 has made the annual list 19 times.
Kent Coules publisher with Hawaii Business Magazine and Brian Bowers, president, of Bowers + Bubota joined us to talk about the program.
Over the past 22 years, the Best Places to Work Program recognizes the best employers in the entire state. 80% of the results are based on anonymous employee feedback.
In addition Hawaii Business Magazine honors companies in categories such as Most Family-Friendly Workplace (sponsored by Aloha Pacific Federal Credit Union) Best Places to Work for Women (sponsored by ProService Hawaii) Healthiest Company (sponsored by UHA), and LGBTQ+.
Bowers + Kubota has been awarded Best Places to Work for 19 years, and has been the best large company winner since 2022.
The first ever Best Places to Work training day will be held on April 23 from 11 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. at the Japanese Cultural Center of Hawaii.
The training will focus on building strong workplace cultures and employee engagement and attendees can hear insights from keynote speaker Peter Burke, president of Workforce Research Group.
