JPS Health Network has been named a Gallup Exceptional Workplace Award (GEWA) winner, marking the second consecutive year our health network has received this prestigious global recognition. In 2025, just 73 organizations worldwide earned this honor, with JPS standing out as one of only 7 U.S. health systems selected.

The Gallup Exceptional Workplace Award recognizes organizations that put people at the center of their strategy and create a culture where employees are engaged, empowered, and motivated to perform at their best. According to Gallup’s criteria for the award, winners prioritize employee well-being, foster inclusive environments, and align their people with purpose.

At JPS, this recognition is more than an award. It reflects the culture that drives its mission to improve healthcare services in Tarrant County. Every team member at JPS plays a vital role in building a workplace where people feel supported, valued, and inspired to make a difference.

“This wasn’t a state award. It wasn’t even a national award. This was a global recognition, and we earned it together,” said Dr. Karen Duncan, President and CEO of JPS Health Network. “What makes this award so meaningful is that it’s rooted in the voices of our team members. It proves what we already know, that JPS is a place where people come not just to work, but to make a difference, and to belong.”

JPS continues to lead with purpose by fostering innovation and delivering high-quality care to the patients we serve. The Gallup Exceptional Workplace Award is a clear testament to the strength of that commitment.
