“We are a company that takes pride in the experience of its people and it’s great to see that this has now been recognised. We want to empower our employees and support them as they build their careers, and this certification is recognition that we are on the right track.”

The Top Employers Institute, established 30 years ago reviews submissions across several key HR practices including People Strategy, Work Environment, Talent Acquisition, Learning and Development, Wellbeing and Diversity and Inclusion. The process is extensive, making the certification one of the most prestigious in the field of human resources.
David Plink, CEO, Top Employers Institute said, “Despite another challenging year for businesses and people around the world, Wipro has shown that across Europe it is consistently focused on supporting its teams. This was the first year we had the opportunity to assess Wipro’s European markets, and it is a real testament to their commitment to putting people first that they have received such high rankings across each of the five markets.”
A number of new initiatives contributed to Wipro’s successful inclusion in this year’s list of certified companies. One of the most significant was Wipro’s use of technology to streamline processes, facilitate online learning and training, enable employees to work with greater autonomy throughout the pandemic, and offer empathy and support throughout the pandemic. At the heart of Wipro’s strategy is wellbeing and care of people.
Deepak Parija, CHRO, Europe, Wipro Limited commented, “Being certified by the Top Employers Institute is a moment of pride and an important milestone for Wipro.
