Verisk Honored with Fifth Consecutive Great Place to Work Certification
08 December 2020 - 12:00AM
Verisk (NASDAQ: VRSK), a leading data analytics provider, today
announced that for the fifth time in as many years it is once again
Great Place to Work-Certified™. The certification honors Verisk for
its outstanding workplace culture, which is guided by three core
values: serve, add value, and innovate.
Great Place to Work is the global authority on workplace
culture, employee experience and the leadership behaviors that
boost innovation and deliver market-leading revenue. Using
validated employee feedback gathered by Great Place to Work’s
rigorous, data-driven methodology, the certification confirms that
nearly 9 out of 10 employees surveyed have a consistently positive
experience at Verisk.
“We congratulate Verisk on its certification,” said Sarah
Lewis-Kulin, vice president of Best Workplace List Research at
Great Place to Work. “Organizations that earn their employees’
trust create great workplace cultures that deliver outstanding
business results.”
Verisk also earned Great Place to Work certifications in other
locations around the world including India, Spain and the United
Kingdom. In the United Kingdom, Verisk was recognized by Great
Place to Work® UK as a center for Excellence in Wellbeing,
supporting the company’s commitment to employees in creating the
best environment possible.
“Our customers rely on us, so it’s crucial to foster a
high-trust, values-driven and collaborative culture at Verisk,”
said Scott Stephenson, chairman, president and CEO of Verisk. “This
recognition signals that we continue to be on the right path in
supporting our employees to grow and thrive and in living our core
values of serving, adding value and innovating.”
