The Great Place to Work institute, in its study had laid emphasis on the voice of the employees. The list of the top 25 best workplaces has been arrived at by assigning two-third weightage to the anonymous survey conducted amongst the employees and the remaining one-third weightage to the strength of people practices implemented across the organisation, measured through responses to a structured questionnaire submitted by the organisation. The study this year covers 106 manufacturing companies and involves 37,060 employees who took the survey.
