Benedict Gautrey, managing director at Great Place to Work UK, explained that it is the organisation’s global mission to help create great workplaces for all, and to recognise those organisations that do so.
He added: “Business leaders need to examine their organisation’s strengths and weaknesses and adapt to shifting employee expectations, such as increased equity, transparency, flexibility and purpose in their work. Whatever life throws at businesses, bold leadership is required. Best Workplaces put people and purpose first. That starts with employees, but extends to local and global communities. Like us, they see a need to address inequalities in society and use their skills and resources to support others.”
