All organizations that nominate themselves for India’s Best Companies To Work For list undergo an assessment. This assessment aims at studying the ways in which organizations fully channelise the people power and create inclusive workplaces through effective leadership, meaningful values and a culture where all employees experience high levels of trust, such that each employee is able to bring their best self to work.
As part of this assessment, all organizations are studied through two lenses. The first lens measures the quality of employee experience through our globally validated survey instrument known as Trust Index™ survey and carries 75% weightage. The survey helps is seeking anonymous feedback from employees and aims to measure the core of what creates great workplaces — key behaviours that drive trust in management, connection with colleagues, and loyalty to the company. The For All™ model not only looks at the aggregate employee experience of an organization but also measures the differences in survey responses across demographic groups and roles within each organization to assess both the quality and consistency of the employee experience.
The second lens is called Culture Audit™, it is a proprietary tool of the Institute that evaluates the strength of the leadership as supported by meaningful values & philosophy and quality of the practices & programs that shape employee experience, build consistent levels of trust and enable each individual to use their potential to better organizational performance. This carries 25% weightage. This tool comprises of six essay questions that provide greater insight into how, and why the organization is great for all people.
The Institute undertakes a robust validation process on the data gathered through the assessment process.
