Singapore – the digital capital of Asia –is recognized as a regional technology hub and is future-ready as a Smart Nation. The presence of a vibrant Information and Communications Technology (ICT) eco-system that is digitally connected to the region means that we continue to draw a strong pipeline of digital talent. In order to maintain our lead as a technology and innovation hub, the ability to attract, retain and sustain skilled talent is critical.
A 2021 Tech Talent report by Bain and Company emphasized the critical issues in hiring and retaining a pool of top tech talent. Similarly, technology firms in Singapore are characterized by hyper-growth and ambitious expansion plans. A continuous war for talent in a highly competitive and rapidly-evolving industry points strongly to a need for companies to create a workforce culture that allows every individual to thrive, regardless of their age or role. It is therefore a business imperative to create a culture where employees and businesses can thrive, in order to weather the challenges in a climate of constant change.
We are proud that our Great Place to Work-Certified™ companies have built a high-trust culture, engaged their employees and maximized their potential to facilitate innovation. They are purpose-driven and adopt a people-first mindset.
Our Certified™ Technology companies indicate that employees are twice more likely to endorse their workplace as a great place to work to their families and friends. This also indicates that their workplace productivity and longevity of their career is twice as likely to progress better. These are companies that have shown that authentic care and employee well-being need not be compromised for ambitious growth, and that it is possible for businesses to scale up quickly and responsibly.

ABOUT OUR METHODOLOGY
The Best Workplaces in Asia List
Great Place to Work® identifies the top organizations that create great workplaces in the Asian and Middle Eastern regions with the publication of the annual Best Workplaces in Asia list. The list recognizes companies in three size categories:
To be considered for inclusion, companies must appear on one or more of our national lists in the region, which includes Greater China (covering China, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Macau), India, Japan, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, South Korea, Sri Lanka and UAE. For the 2021 Asia List, companies ranked on the national list in the Philippines will also be included. Multinational organizations must meet the following requirements:
Multinationals also receive additional credit for their efforts to successfully create an excellent workplace culture in multiple countries in the region. The data used in the calculation of the regional list comes from national lists published in 2019 and early 2020.
