hilton Hotels, which has been listed in the World's best employers list for eight consecutive years, ranked first for the first time in the World's Best Employers list prepared by Fortune magazine and Great Place to Work, and with this major award, a hospitality company ranked first in this field for the first time.
Hilton Hotels, which first appeared on this list in 2016, continues its commitment to being a purpose-driven and supportive workplace that offers inclusive and powerful career opportunities, working continuously to maintain its strong corporate culture and enabling its 460,000 employees around the world to develop more and more every day.
Noting that it is a great honour for them to win the title of the world's best employer after receiving awards in more than 20 countries in Europe, Middle East and Africa, Hilton Vice President and President of Europe, Middle East and Africa Simon Vincent said in his statement:
''This award recognises the dedication of our team members, who deserve to be congratulated in every way, and the success of our culture of innovation and inclusion, which we have continued to foster for more than a century. It also recognises the strength of our investment in our people to create an exceptional workplace that provides development opportunities for everyone at Hilton. Hilton supports all team members at every stage of their journey, both personally and professionally. It also continues its commitment to building an inclusive culture that supports team members to be themselves at work. Exciting travel benefits include extended maternity leave, adoption assistance and the popular Go Hilton team member travel programme. It offers these benefits to both hourly and permanent team members, making it the premier benefits package in the industry.''
Always looking for new ways to increase flexibility in its properties and corporate offices, committed to providing a flexible work environment that will make team members feel supported, and aiming to provide a fully human-centred experience at work, Hilton builds this experience on the following four pillars:
Inclusion:
Hilton works to ensure an equitable and inclusive workforce, with a diverse range of cultures and perspectives represented, reflecting the guests and communities it serves. Fair360 inducted Hilton into its Hall of Fame in 2022 after the company was ranked No. 1 on the Top 50 Companies for Diversity list in 2021.
Healthy Living:
Under the Thrive at Hilton platform, Hilton supports team members to protect not only their own health, but also the health of those closest to them. To support team members' mental health and care needs, the company signed on to industry-leading Care for All Mental Health Support in 2022, a powerful platform of helpful tools and resources.
Development:
Hilton prides itself on providing an environment where team members not only set out to get a job, but realise their career goals along the way. Hilton's educational opportunities include free courses through Hilton University, skills development for human resources leaders, and the company's Guild partnership. There are also Lead@Hilton leadership and development programmes.
Objective:
For more than a century, Hilton team members have carried on Conrad Hilton's vision of filling the world with the warmth of hospitality. Despite the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, the Hilton team is working without compromising its goals. Team members use their diverse skills to deliver an exceptional guest experience, while at the same time making a positive impact on society and ensuring that joy and kindness meet in the travel experience.
Each year, Great Place to Work conducts a data-driven assessment that meticulously measures companies and employee experience to identify the World's Best Employers. As part of the assessment process, surveys are conducted to gather feedback from employees and information on company culture, workforce and certification status. After this stage, the companies in question must prove themselves as outstanding employers on a global level by being included in at least five Best Workplaces lists in Asia, Europe, Latin America, Africa, North America or Australia in 2022 or early 2023.
