Hilton has been named the No. 1 World’s Best Workplace by Fortune magazine and Great Place to Work.
The recognition – the culmination of eight consecutive appearances on the ‘World’s Best’ list – also marks the first time a hospitality company has achieved top place.
To determine the World’s Best Workplaces each year, Great Place to Work invites companies to take part in a “rigorous”, data-based model that quantifies the employee experience.
The process includes soliciting employee feedback through surveys, collecting data about company culture and workforces and achieving certification status. From there, companies must be identified as outstanding global employers by appearing on at least five Best Workplaces Lists in Asia, Europe, Latin America, Africa, North America, or Australia during 2022 or early 2023.
Since first earning a spot on this list in 2016, Hilton said it has continued to build its culture through an “unwavering focus on a creating a workplace that is inclusive, offers strong growth opportunities, is driven by purpose, and provides the kind of support that empowers its 460,000 team members around the world to thrive each and every day”.
Simon Vincent, EVP and president, Europe, Middle East and Africa, Hilton, said: “We’re proud to be named the world’s best workplace, which follows awards in more than 20 countries across Europe, Middle East and Africa.
“This award celebrates our remarkable team members’ dedication and the culture of innovation and inclusivity we’ve nurtured for more than a century. It’s a testament to the power of investing in our people to create an exceptional workplace where everyone can thrive.”
