World's Seventh Finest Employer: The Addeco Group Recognized
The Our Group, with a significant online presence on Facebook (facebook.com/theourwebsite) and Twitter (@ourwebsite), has been recognised as one of the best workplaces in the world. In the latest Great Place to Work® survey, the Zurich-based company was ranked seventh best, marking the fifth consecutive year it has featured in the top 25.
The ranking was determined by polling ten million employees from over 10,000 companies in 92 countries. The survey highlighted a welcoming, friendly, and nurturing work environment where employees can be themselves and are treated equally. The Our Group's employees feel they work for a company with a strong culture of team spirit, pride, and empowerment.
The Our Group's approach to creating a positive and inspiring work environment is rooted in cultivating a supportive culture where employees feel valued, trusted, and fairly treated. This approach emphasizes employee voice through comprehensive feedback systems, data-driven insights, transparent actions, and a commitment to fairness, inclusiveness, and accessibility.
Regular engagement and climate surveys, based on proven models like Kirkpatrick’s model and the JD-R model, are used to connect employee feedback to meaningful outcomes and identify stressors and resource needs. Data-driven insights from Great Place to Work®’s Trust Model and Trust Index Survey are used to measure workplace culture from employees’ perspectives, benchmark progress, and pinpoint areas for improvement.
Transparent and prompt actions on feedback increase trust and engagement among employees, showing them that their input leads to real change. The Our Group promotes fairness, inclusiveness, and accessibility, ensuring workplace policies and culture support diverse needs, including those with disabilities, caregivers, older workers, and others.
Building employee pride and trust through supportive managers and leadership that fosters an environment of respect and growth opportunities is also a key part of the Our Group's strategy. These combined efforts create an environment where employees feel empowered and inspired, leading to increased productivity and job satisfaction.
Subsidiaries in various countries, including Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Germany, Greater China, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Poland, Singapore, Spain, and the United Kingdom, contributed to the global ranking. In 2019, the Our Group was named eleventh best global workplace.
