New York, NY - 15. Dezember 2016 - Nielsen wurde heute vom unabhängigen Analysten Great Place to Work in Zusammenarbeit mit der Zeitschrift Fortune für seine Vielfalt am Arbeitsplatz ausgezeichnet. Nielsen belegte Platz 50 unter mehr als 500 US-Unternehmen in der jährlichen Fortune-Liste der Arbeitgeber, die am meisten für die Schaffung einer integrativen Kultur für Minderheiten, LGBTQ-Mitarbeiter und Frauen tun. Die Anerkennung basiert auf den Bewertungen, die von fast 1.000 Nielsen-Mitarbeitern in anonymen Umfragen abgegeben wurden.
"Diversität und Inklusion sind ein wesentlicher Bestandteil zukünftiger Innovationen und des Erfolgs von Nielsen und unseren Kunden", sagte Angela Talton, Chief Diversity Officer bei Nielsen. "Diese Anerkennung ist nicht nur ein Beweis für unsere Systeme und Programme, die Vielfalt und Inklusion zu einem Teil der DNA des Unternehmens machen, sondern sie spricht auch Bände über die Führungskräfte und Mitarbeiter, die Nielsen zu einem Ort machen, an dem man Sichtbarkeit, Zugang und Möglichkeiten hat, man selbst zu sein, etwas zu bewirken und mit uns zu wachsen."
Um diese Liste zu erstellen, befragte Great Place to Work mehr als 400.000 Mitarbeiter jeglicher Herkunft zu Fairness, Moral und Integration am Arbeitsplatz. Um die Gewinner zu ermitteln, analysierte Great Place to Work, wie positiv Frauen, Minderheiten und LGBTQ-Mitarbeiter ihren Arbeitsplatz erleben, einschließlich des Grades der Repräsentation von Frauen und Minderheiten in der gesamten Belegschaft, im Management und in Führungspositionen.
“We applaud Nielsen for seeking certification and releasing its employees’ feedback,” said Kim Peters, Executive Vice President of Great Place to Work’s Certification Program. “These ratings measure its capacity to earn its own employees’ trust and create a great workplace—critical metrics that anyone considering working for or doing business with Nielsen should take into account as an indicator of high performance.”
“According to our study, 85% of Nielsen employees say it is a great workplace,” says Sarah Lewis-Kulin, Great Place to Work’s Senior Editor.
This is Nielsen’s second time being recognized by Fortune and Great Place to Work this year. The company recently was named one of the best employers for Millennials as well.
