The Top Employers Institute stands as the global authority in acknowledging excellence in People Practices. Participating organisations undergo a HR Best Practices Survey, which is structured around various topics such as the organisation’s general staff wellbeing, talent acquisition, learning, diversity, equity, inclusion, people strategy, and work environment. A dedicated HR auditor has to ensure that the answers provided accurately reflect the firm’s HR practices and conditions for employees.

In 2024, the Institute acknowledged over 2,300 top employers spanning 121 countries for their outstanding workplace practices. These certified top Employers positively impact the lives of over 12 million employees globally.
