Top Employer 2018 in Japan and Asia Pacific

Saint-Gobain has been certified Top Employers Japan 2018 and “Top Employer Asia-Pacific 2018” at a ceremony held on December 11, 2017 in Singapore. This is the third year for Saint-Gobain to be awarded the honor in Japan and Asia-Pacific with the participation of our companies in China, Korea, Thailand, Malaysia and Australia.

The certification was issued by the Top Employer Institute following a validation on the Group's Human Resources policy & strategy and priorities, practices, ownership, measurement and technology support. The Top Employers Institute globally certifies excellence in the conditions that employers create for their people. In 2017, 1240 organizations covering 5 million employees in 116 countries have been certified. They believe that optimal employee conditions ensure that people develop themselves personally and professionally. This in turn enables companies to grow and to develop.

The six stages in the certification program included a HR best practices survey, validation of the provided answers, audit from an external auditing firm of the Top Employers Institute's procedures, processes, systems and data, calculate final scores and grant certification, communication of certification outcomes to participants, and insights and feedback session.

As the major part of the certification process, the HR best practices survey covers all aspects of the HR topics, including talent strategy, workforce planning, on-boarding, learning & development, performance management, leadership development, career & succession management, compensation & benefits, culture and talent acquisition.

This year, only 14 outstanding companies have been certified as Top Employer Asia-Pacific.
