Globally, our Best ӰԺ™ survey is the largest survey of workplace cultures and people practices. The methodology that creates our various Best ӰԺ Lists is one of the most rigorous and highly sought after and regarded as the gold standard of employer awards.
Employees responded to over 60 survey questions describing the extent to which their organisation creates a Great Place to Work For All™. Eighty-five percent of the evaluation is based on what employees say about their experiences of trust and reaching their full human potential as part of their organisation, no matter who they are or what they do. Great Place to Work® analysed these experiences relative to each organisations size, workforce makeup, and whats typical relative to their industry peers. The remaining 15% is based on an assessment of all employees daily experiences of innovation, the companys values, and the effectiveness of their leaders, to ensure a consistent employee experience across departments and seniority levels.
