Project Details
About the project
First published in 2025, the second edition of Brazil’s Best Employers 2026 was created using feedback from professionals throughout the nation and a detailed methodology to evaluate companies. Feedback was gathered from a survey conducted via several online access panels, providing a representative sample of Brazil’s workforce. Respondents were asked to evaluate both their own employer and other employers in their industry. The data was then analyzed using a proven scoring model to rank the highest-rated employer brands, with additional evaluations at demographic and industry levels to provide insights into the Brazilian labor market.
To be considered for the ranking, companies (or their subsidiaries) had to have some degree of operations or employment activity in Brazil with at least 500 workers. The final list recognizes the top 500 employers in Brazil, grouped into 27 industries.
Scoring
How are Brazil’s best employers scored?
Our scoring model is based on more than 500,000 evaluations collected through independent surveys. Each employer’s final score is calculated as a weighted combination of a direct score, which accounts for 70%, and an indirect score, which accounts for 30%. The combined score is used to rank companies in the final list.
Direct score
The direct score reflects employees’ willingness to recommend their own employer. It makes up 70% of the final score for each employer. Respondents rate, on a scale from 0 to 10, how likely they are to recommend their company to friends or family, where 0 means “not at all likely” and 10 means “extremely likely.”
Indirect score
The indirect score captures the perceptions of employers beyond one’s own workplace. It makes up 30% of the final score for each employer. Based on the respondent’s industry, participants are shown a selection of relevant companies and can indicate whether they would recommend or advise against working for them. This provides an external view of each employer’s reputation within its sector.
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 Brazil'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.
