A healthy ranking

As the national debate simmers over gender and opportunity inequality, some companies are being celebrated for getting it right. And three employers on the west coast of Florida — all hospitals — are ranked among the top 100 in the country for being the most fair to the fairer gender.

That's according to Forbes’ 2018 America’s Best Employers for Women list. Clearwater-based hospital giant BayCare is ranked No. 4 on the list, while Tampa General Hospital is No. 48 and Lee Health is No. 86. (Online shopping retailer HSN, acquired by Qurate Retail Group, formerly QVC, in late 2017 and previously based in St. Petersburg, is No. 68.)
