Project Details
About the project
The ranking of the World’s Best Employers 2024 is based on independently collected survey results from more than 300,000 evaluations across over 50 countries worldwide. The surveys were conducted using online access panels. The scope requires that companies (or their subsidiaries) have some degree of operations or employment activity in at least two world regions, and all reviews are aggregated underneath a single parent employer brand.
Scoring
The scoring in our evaluation
The scoring model is based on independently collected survey data from 170,000 employees across over 50 countries, which is divided into direct promoter score and indirect public perception score areas. Country-level differences in response patterns are accounted for using response indexing.
Direct score
On a scale of 0 to 10, respondents indicate how likely they are to recommend their own employer to friends or family – with 0 being the worst and 10 the best.
Indirect score
Respondents indicate the industry they work in. Based on this, each respondent is shown a selection of employers who are active in the given sector. Respondents can then voluntarily recommend or advise against employers from the list.
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 World's Best Employers 2024 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.
