Kantar Worldpanel Ireland has been recognised as one of the best places to work in 2017 at the Best Workplaces in Ireland awards. The company was ranked the 7th best small workplace in Ireland, up from 11th position last year.
Now in their fifteenth year, the Great Place to Work awards celebrate Irish companies who promote employee wellbeing while supporting staff to perform at their best. Companies are assessed on their policies and practices, as well as from the feedback of staff themselves.
Tim Kidd, Managing Director UK & Ireland at Kantar Worldpanel comments: “We are committed to fostering a healthy and supportive work environment so we’re delighted that our efforts have been recognised by this award. We were particularly commended for the ways in which we show our staff they matter, such as the numerous awards programmes we run to recognise and reward hard work.
“We support our employees to develop both professionally and personally, whether by encouraging them to attend training or take a sabbatical. We believe that supported and motivated staff produce better work for clients so this approach is central to our commercial success too. Our employees are our greatest asset – they deserve to be treated well.”
John Ryan, CEO of Great Place to Work Ireland says: “It’s clear from the results of our assessment survey that employees from Ireland’s best workplaces, who are in a unique position to know, believe that clients and customers can trust their organisations.
“The listed organisations this year have separated themselves from their peers by leveraging the power of trust to the benefit of all their stakeholders, and that is why I want to extend my congratulations to one and all on a wonderful achievement.”
