HYDERABAD, INDIA, Jan. 5 (Korea Bizwire) — Leading global data analytics provider Verisk (NASDAQ: VRSK) has been Great Place to Work-Certified™ in India for the second year in a row. Based on employee feedback, the certification honors Verisk for its outstanding workplace culture.
Verisk’s certification is driven by an employee engagement survey which measured the extent to which employees across the organization reported a consistently great workplace experience, considering factors such as their daily encounters of innovation, inclusivity, company values and the effectiveness of its leaders. Verisk has created a Great Place to Work FOR ALL their employees by excelling on the five dimensions of a High-Trust, High-Performance Culture™ – Credibility, Respect, Fairness, Pride and Camaraderie.
“The feedback of our colleagues is critical in guiding the ways we communicate, collaborate and support each other,” said Sunita Holzer, Verisk’s Chief Human Relations Officer. “We aim to foster a culture that values integrity, respect, fairness and camaraderie and appreciate our team’s partnership in continuing to make Verisk better for every member of our community.”
Great Place to Work® is the global authority on workplace culture. Since 1992, Great Place to Work has surveyed more than 100 million employees worldwide and used those deep insights to define what makes a great workplace: trust. Its employee survey platform empowers leaders with the feedback, real-time reporting and insights they need to make strategic people decisions. The Institute serves businesses, non-profits and government agencies in more than 60 countries and has conducted pioneering research on the characteristics of great workplaces for over three decades.
