“The survey in China this year has once again highlighted the leading role played by Chinese companies in promoting employee welfare and engagement. Chinese companies consistently score higher than regional peers in such areas as group dynamics and team cohesion; and this year is no different”, said William Ng, group publisher and editor-in-chief of Business Media International, the publisher of HR Asia.
“In times like these, we ask the all-important question of what separates the very best of employers from the good ones? Over the past 11 years of running Asia’s largest HR media brand, and 7 of those years surveying thousands of companies and millions of employees for the HR Asia Best Companies to Work for in Asia®; we distilled the shortlist of answers to only one: empathy,” added Ng.
This year, 8 Chinese companies won the WeCare™ certification; which is given out along with the HR Asia Best Companies to Work for in Asia 2020. They are Avery Dennison China, Coach Shanghai Limited, Colliers International China, Jinko Solar, Lee Kum Kee (Xin Hui), Maersk China and Mundipharma (China) Pharmaceutical Co.,Ltd.
