2018 UK's Best Workplaces

How do we determine a UK Best Workplace™?

Our rigorous evaluation process is heavily based on the employee experience. Through our Trust Index© survey and Culture Audit© assessment we capture both the employee feedback and the organisational practices that make up a truly impactful workplace culture.

No other workplace recognition programme compares what leaders think they are delivering with what is actually being experienced by employees.
