DENVER, 22 January 2008 — CH2M HILL, a global full-service engineering, construction and operations firm, has been ranked 54 on FORTUNE's 11th annual "100 Best Companies to Work For" list.

This is the third time the company has earned a spot on the prestigious list. The full list and related stories appear in the Feb. 4 issue of FORTUNE available on newsstands Jan. 28 and at http://www.fortune.com/ on Jan. 22.

"We owe a huge thanks to every one of our employees whose collective efforts truly make CH2M HILL a great place to work," said Ralph Peterson, CH2M HILL's Chairman and CEO. "This ranking is a testament to the core values that our firm strives for every day by respecting colleagues, delivering value for our clients and sharing the rewards of success with our employee owners. We are extremely proud to be in the company of the other great employers on this list."

FORTUNE's annual ranking is determined through an extensive nomination and application process. Two-thirds of the score is based on how randomly selected employees respond to a 57-question survey created by the Great Place to Work Institute. The other third is based on the company’s responses to the Institute's Cultural Audit.

CH2M HILL was selected, in part, due to its competitive compensation and benefits packages, open and accessible communications practices, employee-ownership culture, learning and development opportunities and work-life balance programs.

Employees frequently cite challenging projects as the reason for joining and staying with CH2M HILL. Current projects include:

• Program management for the seven-year, $5 billion expansion of the Panama Canal
• Overseeing the design and construction of the venues and infrastructure for the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games as part of the CLM Delivery Partner
