Deloitte China Top Employer award for 11th consecutive year

Deloitte China has been recognized for the 11^th consecutive year as a Top Employer by the independent Top Employers Institute^*. Deloitte was one of only 57 awarded for 2016 from a field of hundreds of organizations that participated in the stringent certification process.

The certification process covers the many dimensions that contribute to an effective human resource culture. Being certified as top employer is valuable benchmarking for assessing the employment environment we have created as part of our high performing culture. Sustained success in the competitive global marketplace requires us to perform at the highest level. Underpinning a high performing culture is the quality of our connections… with the marketplaces we choose to operate in…with our clients… and most importantly, the quality and value with which we connect to our people.

Chief Operating Officer, Mark Robinson, who collected the award on behalf of Deloitte China, says "Our certification as a 2016 Top Employer is an important milestone but it does not mark the end of our journey. Being a Top Employer means continuous commitment to adapt and excel in response to significant ongoing changes in our business and communities."

Deloitte China CEO, Lawrence China, in his message to the firm's 10,000 employees in the Mainland, Hong Kong SAR and Macau SAR, said, "I am proud of and would like to thank all Deloitte China colleagues. This certification provides external validation that the environment that we are creating is market leading. That environment comes to life through your individual and collective values, behaviors and actions. That is what defines our culture. Together we are creating an impact that matters."

* The Top Employers Institute is an independent organization operating globally and headquartered in the Netherlands since 1991. Companies participating in Top Employers Institute's certification program must complete a stringent research process – the Top Employers Institutes' international HR Best Practices Survey. All answers were independently audited (Grant Thornton) through the document inspections and validation interviews, meaning the research has verified our outstanding employee conditions and earned us a coveted spot among a select group of certified Top Employers. This year, 57 companies/organizations in China are certified as Top Employers.

The Top Employers Institute assessed participating organizations on criteria including Talent Strategy, Workforce Planning, On-boarding, Learning & Development, Performance Management, Leadership Development, Career & Succession Management, Compensation & Benefits and Culture.

Deloitte China earned the Top Employer certification because our employee offerings across all measured criteria surpassed the required certification standards.
