Simprints in Newsweek’s Top 100 Most Loved Workplaces
We’re thrilled that our team and workplace culture have been recognised for employee sentiment and satisfaction by Newsweek.
This is the second annual Top 100 Global Most Loved Workplaces® list in collaboration with the Best Practice Institute (BPI), a leadership development and benchmark research company.
Newsweek developed the list after surveying more than 2 million employees from businesses with workforces varying in size from 30 to more than 10,000. The list recognises companies that put respect, caring, and appreciation for their employees at the centre of their business model and, in doing so, have earned the loyalty and respect of the people who work for them.
Tara Clarkson, Simprints’ Chief of People and Culture, told us:
“I’m delighted that our culture has been so positively recognised. At Simprints, we prioritise our employees by fostering a high-trust and ‘mutual flex’ culture. Our remote work environment values results over presenteeism and emphasises DEI and inclusivity, enabling a balance between personal and professional needs. Our ethos is rooted in empathy and respect, ensuring all voices are heard through open dialogue, radical candour, multiple feedback mechanisms, and inclusive decision-making processes. Since implementing the four-day work week, we’ve achieved a 10% increase in employee wellbeing and productivity, decreased turnover, faster hiring, and higher engagement. We continually strive to lead an employee-centric culture.”
Five critical areas measured to understand employee sentiment
How positive workers feel about their future at the company
- Career achievement
- How much employer values align with employee values
- Respect at all levels
- Level of collaboration at the firm
- In addition, areas such as inclusion, employee wellness, diversity, career development, and company leadership were identified and analysed.
To identify the top 100 companies ranked in this Newsweek publication, companies were evaluated and scored as follows: 50% of the initial score was based on direct employee responses to BPI’s proprietary Love of Workplace Index® assessment. Another 15% was derived from analysis of external public ratings from sites such as Comparably, Careerbliss, Glassdoor, Indeed, and Google. The final 35% came from BPI’s direct interviews and written responses from company officials. Newsweek then researched every company on the list to determine the final list of 100 companies and their rankings.
