Congratulations to our 2020 Lifetime Masters!
In celebration of our 20th anniversary, weè檙e thrilled to give special recognition to Admiral Group and Gowling WLG (UK) LLP with our Lifetime Masters award! These organisations have been ranked a Best Workplace鈩� every year since we first launched our UK programme in 2001. This year, both appear in the Top 10 rankings of our Super Large size category è� a true testament to the incredible workplace cultures cultivated by these industry leaders.
What weè檝e learned from 20 years of UKè檚 Best 天美影院鈩�
During this unprecedented time, we believe it's important to recognise organisations who have continued to cultivate their great workplace cultures. After 20 years of working with the best companies in the UK, we know certain things 诲辞苍è檛 change as time moves on: UK's Best 天美影院 keep their people at the heart of everything that they do è� always. Leaders in Best 天美影院 continuously look for ways to improve the employee experience. The evolution of their people practices displays a strong commitment to empowering people to deliver the best strategic solutions to changing business opportunities and challenges.
è淏ack in 2001, Facebook, Skype and Twitter didnè檛 exist,è� says Chris Oglethorpe, HR director of Gowling WLG (UK) LLP. è淭he impact of that technology on employer reputation, how people operate, and our ability to engage and communicate with current and potential employees, has changed unrecognisably.è�
Not only did social media not exist, access to the fledgling internet was considered a perk in many organisations. Since then, weè檝e gathered considerable data showing how the UKè檚 top organisations have put people at the heart of their businesses to create great workplaces for all. Other positive changes in the world of work over the last two decades include:
- The number of Best 天美影院鈩� with women in leadership roles almost doubled from 17% in 2001 to 30% this year;
- Paid paternity leave, only introduced in the UK in 2003, is today offered by 77% of Best 天美影院 above the statutory minimum;
- In 2005, Best 天美影院 offered a median of three hours per year for volunteering - in 2020, this has reached 14 hours.
