Sign inSpecsavers named one of the world’s best workplaces second year in a row
To be considered for the list of best workplaces, companies must have 5,000 or more employees globally and be identified as outstanding global employers and be on at least five Best Workplaces lists from across the world over the last two years. Companies are ranked more highly based on their ability to outperform other companies in their national market and around the world.
Specsavers has been ranked in World’s Best Workplaces for the second year in a row. The Guernsey-based family firm, which is now considered as much an audiology specialist as an optics force, ranked 12th in the global list.
Moving up four places from last year, Specsavers was the highest ranked UK-based company and the top retailer in the list. It was chosen from organisations that took part in Great Place to Work’s employee survey process, which in total registers more than nine million responses, representing 25 million employees worldwide.
Organisations are assessed on their efforts to create great workplaces and positively impact people and communities across multiple countries around the world. Companies must demonstrate how they support employees with personalised services and meet their needs.
