Announcements Hewitt to include blue-collar workers in `Best Employer' survey Our Bureau
New Delhi , May 26 HEWITT Associates said it would, for the first time, include blue-collar workers while compiling India's `Best Employer' list this year and expected about 250 companies across product segments to participate in this annual survey. Along with the usual list of India's 25 `Best Employers', `Most Admired Leadership' and `Most Popular HR Department', the study will also feature `India's Five Best Managed Workforces'. The survey will introduce several other firsts. It will be available this year in both Hindi and English and include opportunities for recognition of companies, which have done notable work in some key human resource function, and an option for participating companies to customise the Employee Satisfaction questionnaire. While companies across a wide cross section of industries take part in this survey every year, the predominant sector is information technology. Surprisingly, even public sector undertakings (PSU), specially the navratnas,have been keen to feature in the survey, with oil PSUs taking the lead. Over the last three years family-owned businesses have shown increasing willingness to be benchmarked against global best practices in human resource development compared to those run professionally. Hewitt's `Best Employers' is a global study, conducted across nine markets in Asia. The company has been conducting this study in India for the last four years.
