What does GPTW (Great Place to Work) recognition mean?

Great Place To Work® is a globally renowned authority on workplace culture. Since 1992, they have surveyed over 100 million employees worldwide. Their research identifies trust as the cornerstone of a truly great workplace and aims to encourage organizations around the world to build a healthy work environment for their employees. Their employee survey platform empowers companies by providing valuable feedback, real-time reporting, and insights for making strategic people-positive decisions.

Employee Trust and Sentiment

Among the most impressive rankings as part of the GPTW recognition is the company’s staggering 96% Trust Index™ Grand Mean score. This score indicates a very high level of trust between employees and leadership. Additionally, the Overriding Sentiment score, which captures the overall emotional sentiment of employees, came in at a remarkable 97%. The implication here is that employees at Welspun overwhelmingly believe it's a Great Place To Work.

Transparency between employees and leadership

The main reason for such a high Trust Index rating is the company’s employee engagement and transparency policies. Welspun incorporates a transparent communication forum between employees and senior leaders in order to maintain a healthy work environment. These forums give employees a safe platform to express their views and address their suggestions. Additionally, the company also holds monthly departmental meetings, skip-level meetings and town hall meetings. All these initiatives are designed to bridge the communication gap between employees and the company’s leadership.

Dedicated Learning & Development programs at Welspun

As part of their initiatives to empower their employees and help them boost their careers, Welspun Living conducts dedicated Learning & Development programs that are designed to help them learn, grow and make the most of their opportunities.

The Tree of Deeds Program encourages social engagement

Welspun Living’s Tree of Deeds program encourages its employees to participate in and address their social needs outside of their office cubicles. Welspun employees from minority communities, like the workers at its Anjar plant receive continuous support from the company for the upliftment of their families and get all their medical and social needs addressed.
