a.s.r. wins World-class Workplace award in financial services sector
This year, a.s.r. was proclaimed a World-class Workplace in the financial services sector. This is the result of a large-scale survey by Effectory into good employment practices.
Using an employee questionnaire, Effectory assessed various financial service providers on, among other things, organisational direction, pride in work and utilisation of talent. The employees gave a.s.r. a score of 8.4, the highest score in the financial services sector. This high rating already earned a.s.r. the Best Employer quality mark in January.
Jolanda Sappelli, Director of Human Resources at a.s.r.: ‘It is great to see that employees appreciate a.s.r.’s employment practices so positively that we have even achieved the highest score in the sector. Especially in this period when we are not working at the office, I find it a confirmation that we are doing the right things to keep in touch with our employees.’
