Project Details
About the project
The second edition of The Best Employers Asia-Pacific 2026 was created using feedback from professionals throughout the region and a detailed methodology to evaluate companies. Feedback from over 300,000 employees was gathered through independent surveys conducted via online access panels, providing a representative sample of the workforce in Asia-Pacific. Respondents were asked to evaluate both their own employer and other employers in their industry.
To be considered for the ranking, companies (or their subsidiaries) had to have significant international engagement, employ more than 1,000 people and operate in at least two of the countries in the Asia-Pacific region (for the scope of this project: Australia, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Japan, Macau, Malaysia, New Zealand, Philippines, Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, Vietnam). Over 3,000 companies were evaluated in total.
The final list recognizes the top 500 employers in the country, grouped into 27 industries.
Scoring
The scoring in our evaluation
Our scoring model weights independently collected survey data from employees in Asia-Pacific, consisting of a direct score and an indirect score.
Direct score
On a scale of 0 to 10, participants indicated how likely they were to recommend their own employer to friends or family – with 0 being the worst and 10 the best.
Indirect score
Participants were also given the chance to evaluate other employers in their respective industries, or the employers of friends, acquaintances, and family members that stood out either positively or negatively.
METHODOLOGY
How we work
Learn about our general approach to creating employer rankings. Further details about how the ranking was created can be found in the Asia-Pacific's Best Employers 2026 methodology.
01 Concept
For our employment projects, we evaluate and rank the world’s leading employers, highlighting organizations that excel in fostering positive work environments and sustainable growth. Our rankings help job seekers make informed career choices while providing companies with a benchmark to assess their standing in the global job market.
02 Data Collection
For data collection, our team of analysts creates detailed online questionnaires that ask survey participants about work-related topics. By working with leading online access panels worldwide, suitable participants are identified and surveyed independently of potentially awarded employer brands. Survey responses are then checked for quality and validity (interview length, variances, inconsistencies) and sorted accordingly.
03 Evaluation
To evaluate the data, we apply a scoring model that combines direct feedback on the participants’ own employers with indirect feedback on other employers within their professional fields.
04 Quality Assurance
For each potential award-winning employer, company information is researched and eligibility for the list is confirmed. This step serves as quality assurance and is presented as information in the publication.
Partnership
