Hilton and InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG) are the only two hospitality companies that listed in the Top 10 list of the Best Workplaces in Asia. The Best Workplaces in Asia list recognizes organizations in the Asia region that are dedicated to sustaining high-trust cultures for their employees. These workplaces are distinguished by their extraordinary levels of trust, pride, and camaraderie.
DHL topped the ranking for Asia's Best Multinational Workplaces 2017 followed by Salesforce. Hilton ranked third in the listing, while Omnicom Media Group ranked fourth and IHG has been recognized as the fifth best place to work.
The rankings are derived from insights gathered from Great Place to Work's extensive Trust Index© Survey which measures employee perception of the workplace environment, and a Culture Audit©, completed by the organisation’s management team and evaluated by an independent Great Place to Work team. More than 1,400 companies participated in national list studies across nine Asia-region countries, including Australia, China, India, Japan, Korea, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Sri Lanka, and the United Arab Emirates.
Deborah Woollard, Vice President, Human Resources, Asia, Middle East and Africa, IHG, said: “At IHG, it is our people that make up the heart of our business and a great workplace culture. A place where people come to work excited and engaged in what they do, where they can grow and learn, and where they can be themselves, is not just a nice to have but is part of our DNA and competitive advantage. This stems from an environment built on trust and shared values and impacts how we interact with our guests and with each other.
“Being recognised as one of the best companies to work for in Asia shows that we are on the right path. As we continue this journey, we are committed to continue investing tirelessly to provide opportunities for our people to grow in their professional and personal journeys, celebrate the contributions of those who give so much to IHG, and create an even stronger environment for our colleagues to build trust and relationships with each other,”Deborah added.
