Great Place to Work releases its 5th annual list of Best Workplaces in Hong Kong

06 Jul 2020

We are BETTER TOGETHER!

HONG KONG, July 6, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Great Place to Work®, the global authority on workplace culture, announces the Best Workplaces in Hong Kong? 2020.

This year Great Place to Work® celebrated the 5th Best Workplaces in Hong Kong? Awards Ceremony in a unprecedented way due to the current situation of COVID-19. In order to uphold the safety of the colleagues and customers, the Institute made the responsible business decision to change the in-person Awards Ceremony to an online digital event. Earlier this year, Great Place to Work® launched a global campaign called BETTER TOGETHER to provide support to its clients and global affiliates. The Best Workplaces in Hong Kong? Awards Ceremony continued this by also having the theme of BETTER TOGETHER, reflecting the current situation that some people are working remotely and not being physically connected. The core of this campaign is to provide all kinds of information that can help different organizations and its employees from time to time, such as a COVID-19 survey, webinar and blogs, all of which can be found at the Great Place to Work® official website.  

The event was held virtually via ZOOM and it was a wonderful moment to witness that attendees from all over the world tuned in to participate and connect together. These included not only the awardees, but also other organizations and affiliates around the world who gathered together to celebrate this special moment. The hosting organisation was honoured to have Mr. Ho Kai Ming, Under Secretary for Labour and Welfare HKSAR and Mr. Michael C. Bush, the Global CEO of Great Place to Work®?, participate in the event as they delivered some inspiring and encouraging speeches.

During the event some of the outstanding practices of COVID-19 from the awardees were shared, where many organizations launched a variety of policies and practices that help in continuing to provide support to its employees and their families and even to their extended communities.

Furthermore, Great Place to Work® presented a special award called LEGENDS?, which recognizes organizations that achieved the Best Workplaces? recognition in 5 consecutive years. This recognition pays special tribute to those who have been committed in creating a better workplace, by consistently listening to their employees and maintaining high-TRUST workplace cultures over a sustained period of time. Congratulations to DHL Express Hong Kong and Mars Company Hong Kong Limited on achieving this LEGENDS? recognition. This is truly a fantastic achievement.

Additionally, the event revealed two leading companies: TE connectivity and American Express International, Inc. which received the recognition of Best Workplaces for Women? this year. This award recognizes those top organizations that help to provide a great working environment to all employees, and also in creating positive and supportive workplaces for women. Best Workplaces for Women? succeed in developing and promoting practices that make sure women in the workplace have a fair and positive work experience, and have the opportunity to contribute to the success of the business while they develop their talents personally and professionally. 

This year 50 organizations participated in the survey studies, while 16 companies earned the Best Workplaces in Hong Kong? recognition. In addition to the excitement of cheering the Best Workplaces in Hong Kong? 2020, the research findings show that TRUST remains the key winning differentiator, and that the award-winning companies are leading the way in creating a great workplace even when facing the most challenging year in recent history.

Mr. Jose Carlos Bezanilla, CEO of Great Place to Work® Greater China commented "The "new normal", as we are discovering, is bringing with it many new challenges. But where they may be calls for 'out with the old and in with the new', our findings from our 2020 Best Workplaces Hong Kong? evaluations show that a high level of TRUST in the workplace is consistently necessary for continuity, survival, innovation, resilience, keeping the motivation, among many other factors. We will need a different kind of leadership, an outstanding team of human capital/HR personnel, and a strong and resilient culture to survive and thrive. These traits are evident at the Best Workplaces? that we are celebrating today at our 5th Hong Kong event."
