Attracting and retaining top remote talent doesn’t happen by accident—it’s the result of a strong, people-first culture.
Recently, Remote Staff earned the prestigious Great Place to Work badge, a milestone that reflects its commitment to building a workplace where Filipino remote professionals can thrive.
However, what does this recognition actually mean, and why should it matter to current (and future) team members?
A Quick Look at the Great Place to Work Badge
The Great Place to Work badge is more than just a logo—it’s a globally recognized symbol of a company’s commitment to creating an outstanding workplace.
This workplace culture certification is awarded to companies that meet high standards in areas like trust, fairness, respect, and overall employee experience.
What sets it apart is that it’s based on anonymous company-wide employee surveys that capture how team members truly feel about their work environment.
The results are then analyzed using a proprietary algorithm that measures trust and team dynamics, while a culture audit checks if company practices match each employee’s daily reality.
In short, the badge indicates a workplace where people feel valued, supported, and proud of the work they do.
PH Companies That Have Also Earned This Badge
Well-known names like Teleperformance Philippines, Accenture, and Canva Manila have also earned this certification – as have Synchrony, Cisco, Atlassian, and 3M.
These companies are particularly known throughout the country for supportive and empowering work environments.
With its latest milestone, Remote Staff joins these companies as a certified ethical employer—with a people-first culture as a strong talent attraction tool to help build better workplaces for Filipino professionals.
What It Takes to Get Certified
The Great Place to Work certification isn’t handed out lightly. Companies must go through a rigorous process that measures how employees truly feel about where they work.
For Remote Staff, this involved participating in anonymous employee feedback surveys using the The Great Place to Work Trust Index™.
In this survey, team members respond to 60 statements, plus demographic and open-ended questions, rating aspects like trust, inclusion, leadership, pride, and camaraderie.
These results were then evaluated by Great Place to Work’s independent research team, using a data-driven proprietary algorithm.
This algorithm derives scores across five core dimensions—credibility, respect, fairness, pride, and camaraderie—and compares the results to national and global workplace standards as well as employee experience benchmarks.
A minimum overall Trust Index score (typically 70%) is required to qualify for certification.
In addition, companies must complete an organizational culture audit, detailing actual workplace policies, people practices, and leadership approaches.
Evaluators use this to cross-check — ensuring there’s consistency between the company’s claims and the real, day‑to‑day employee experience.
There are no gimmicks or quick fixes involved.
Only authentic, everyday values are measured—how employees are treated, the level of workplace inclusivity and support, and whether teams consistently feel respected and genuinely appreciated.
