Sunshine Holdings was recognised among Asia’s Best Large Workplaces for 2024 by Great Place to Work.
The accolade is a reflection of Sunshine’s dedication to creating and promoting a holistic workspace for all its associates.
Great Place to Work identifies Best Workplaces in Asia by conducting a survey of over 2.7 million employees in Asia and the Middle East about the key factors that create great workplaces for all and analysing company workplace programs impacting nearly 6.9 million employees in the region. Sunshine Holdings was ranked 57 among the top 70 large workplaces in Asia.
Group Chief Executive Officer Shyam Sathasivam said, “We consider it a great honour to be recognised as one of Asia again by the Great Place to Work. Having previously been recognised as one of the best workplaces in Sri Lanka, this accolade that places us among some of Asia’s best loved organisations is testament to our unwavering commitment to cultivating an open, secure, and diverse work environment that empowers employees to excel in their careers and exceed stakeholder expectations.”
Sunshine Holdings was ranked among Sri Lanka’s best workplaces in the 2023 survey, which warranted entry in to the next level Asian competition. The Sri Lanka credential was based on extensive ratings (over 70% positive sentiment) provided by its employees in an anonymous globally recognised survey conducted by Great Place to Work® in Sri Lanka.
The certification recognised Sunshine Holdings, Healthguard Pharmacy, Sunshine Consumer Lanka, Sunshine Healthcare, and Sunshine Tea.
An interesting survey finding of this year was that companies on the list have higher numbers of employees who report a positive experience at work compared to the typical workplace in Asia.
When companies build high levels of trust with employees, they are more likely to be prepared for disruption — including the rise of generative AI.
At the Best Workplaces, 89% of employees report that their company celebrates people who try new ways of doing things — 27 points higher than the 62% of employees who said the same at typical workplaces in Asia.
