Tarandeep Singh, Partner, Aon Hewitt India Consulting, said there is a strong correlation of Aon Best Employers with financial performance.
"Organisations that have won the Best Employers title at least two times in the last five years have delivered on an average 2.8 times stock appreciation during this period (data restricted to scrip performance over Indian bourses for like- to-like macroeconomic comparison)," Singh said.
A total of 119 companies representing 14 key industries, cumulatively employing some 5,20,000 employees, participated in the 2017 Aon Best Employers India study. Global MNC Google did not participate.
The Aon Best Employers programme is run in 12 markets -- Australia & New Zealand, China, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand as well as the Middle-East.
The study was first conducted in Asia in 2001.
The purpose is to gain insights into companies that are creating real competitive advantage through their staff to explore what makes a workplace of choice and identify the best employers in the region.
