Developed based on Scientific Research

Developed based on Scientific Research

The Top Employer Certificate was developed with internationally recognised experts and grounded in current HR and employer branding research. The certification has three objectives: attract stronger applicants, increase employee satisfaction, and establish a sustainable measurement system that produces reliable results year after year.

Every Employee Gets a Voice

Representative Employee Survey & HR-Interview

Representative Employee Survey & HR-Interview

The employer award is based on an HR interview as well as a representative survey of all employees at a company. Each component accounts for 50% of the total score. The employee survey is anonymous, giving your team a genuine opportunity to be heard, and giving you data you can actually trust.

MAXIMUM TRANSPARENCY

Transparent Criteria, Independent Result

Transparent Criteria, Independent Result

Unlike other employer certifications, the “Top Employer” seal follows a professional publicly available set of criteria — so every organization is assessed the same way. Certification is conducted independently, ensuring the result means something to candidates, employees, and partners who see it.
