Arrow Electronics team celebrates winning “”Great Place to Work for 2018” award in Korea

 

The award is judged by Great Place to Work^® Institute, an
international trust management evaluation agency, based on a diagnostic program
“Trust Index©” that measures companies across five main categories:
“Credibility, Respect, Fairness, Pride, Camaraderie.” It is followed by a
Culture Audit conducted by Great Place to Work^® Institute
KOREA, a global culture consulting company.

 

“Today’s employees are more empowered than ever in choosing who they
want to work for,” said Chi Bang Guen, CEO of Great Place to Work^® Institute
KOREA. “Employees who feel respected and trusted by their co-workers and
employers are more likely to stay with a company in the longer term.”

 

The “Trust Index^©” Survey has been recognized as a global
standard tool for measuring and analyzing the level of trust and satisfaction
of employees. The measurement has been adopted across 60
countries, including the United States, European Union and Japan. This
year’s results revealed that Arrow Electronics in Korea outscored in overall
performance in all five of the diagnostic categories, compared with its
industry counterparts.

 

“We are honored to receive this recognition.  The
award reinforces our commitment to adapting global best practices locally to
make sure that our employees here work in an inspiring, encouraging, and
healthy environment,” said Brian Yoon, senior regional director of Sales for
Korea at Arrow Electronics. “This award is a recognition of our long-term
commitment to not only cultivating a place that achieve results, but also
allowing our members to realize their full potential.”

 

Arrow Electronics has won multiple HR awards recently, including HR
Asia’s “Best Companies to Work for 2018^TM” in China in October,
and was also crowned with the same title in Hong Kong and Malaysia earlier this
year and Singapore and Malaysia in 2017.
