FORBES MAGAZINE RECOGNIZES HARD ROCK® AS ONE OF AMERICA'S BEST LARGE EMPLOYERS ACROSS TRAVEL, LEISURE AND ENTERTAINMENT FOR 2022

HOLLYWOOD, Fla., Feb. 21, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Hard Rock International has been named by Forbes as one of America's Best Large Employers for 2022, earning a ranking among other prestigious companies in the "Travel & Leisure" industry – which spans hotels, resorts, restaurants and entertainment entities. This is the sixth time the brand has been recognized with this honor since 2015, and comes on the heels of Hard Rock ranking first in its category last year.

The list of America's Best Large Employers of 2022 highlights the companies who continue to prioritize making their workplace the best for its employees, especially during the trying times that the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has brought upon the hospitality industry.

In partnership with market research firm, Statista, Forbes compiled the 2022 list by surveying approximately 60,000 Americans working for businesses with at least 1,000 employees. Participants in the survey were asked questions on work related topics including work conditions, salary, potential for development and company image regarding their current employer. The evaluation was based on direct and indirect recommendations from respondents who were asked to rate their willingness to recommend their own employer to friends and family. The final list ranks the 500 large and 500 midsize employers that received the most recommendations.

"As a global company with more than 22,000 team members just in the U.S, this honor is an especially meaningful testament to Hard Rock's continued efforts to provide the best work environment for its team members," said David Carroll, SVP of Human Resources at Hard Rock International. "Without them, Hard Rock would not be the place that it is today."
