India’s Great Mid-size Workplaces 2023

Our Methodology

Insights into the framework of India’s largest and most credible workplace culture study to identify best workplaces

Backed by 30 years of data, Great Place To Work® is the global authority on workplace culture. Great Place To Work’s methodology, derived from years of studying the best workplaces across the globe, is recognised as rigorous and objective, and considered the gold standard for defining great workplaces across business, academia, and government organisations. Their proprietary methodology and platform enable leaders to capture, analyse, and understand the experience of every employee, and compare outcomes with data collected from more than 100 million employees in 150 countries worldwide.

Great Place To Work’s For All methodology is based on the fact that fast-changing competitive landscapes and the need for speed and agility indicate that doing healthy business is about improving results by creating workplace culture where leaders empower all individuals to reach their full potential and where every employee feels a sense of belonging regardless of their demography.

All organisations that nominate themselves for India’s Great Mid-size Workplaces™ list undergo an assessment. This assessment aims at studying the ways in which organisations completely channelise their 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 organisations 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 per cent weightage. The survey helps in 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 organisation, but also measures the differences in survey responses across demographic groups and roles within each organisation to assess the quality and consistency of the employee experience.

The second lens, called Culture Audit™, is a proprietary tool of Great Place To Work that evaluates the strength of the leadership as supported by meaningful values and philosophy and quality of the practices and programmes that shape employee experience, build consistent levels of trust, and enable each individual to use their potential to better organisational performance. This carries 25 per cent weightage. This tool comprises six questions that provide greater insight into how and why the organisation is great for all people.

Great Place To Work India undertakes a robust validation process on the data gathered through the assessment process. The cumulative score of Trust Index and Culture Audit determines an organisation’s position in the ranking scoreboard and helps in identifying ‘India’s Great Mid-Size Workplaces’. No individual or jury has a say in who makes it to the list—only employee feedback and quality of Culture Audit determine if an organisation is a great workplace.
