Global Lingo recognised by Great Place to Work® on Certification Nation Day, a National Celebration of Outstanding Workplaces

Global Lingo is proud to celebrate Certification Nation Day on 1st November, along with the community of Great Place to Work-Certified™ companies across the country. Great Place to Work® has designated the 1st November as Certification Nation Day to honour and acknowledge companies working to create great places to work for all.

“We’re so proud to have built an environment where people love to work”, says Frosso Skoteinioti, People Operations Manager. “We’ve worked hard to celebrate a culture where our family of employees work and become the best possible versions of themselves. At Global Lingo, we build our company culture around 5 Values Champions:

  1. Be Collaborative
  2. Be Progressive
  3. Be Dynamic
  4. Be Curious
  5. Be Visionary”

Great Place To Work® is the global authority on workplace culture, recognised worldwide by employees and employers alike for identifying outstanding employee experiences.

“Great Place to Work Certification is a major competitive advantage in the market for talent. By celebrating Certification, companies are enhancing their employer brand and becoming more attractive to potential candidates, making it easier to recruit and retain top talent” says Benedict Gautrey Managing Director of Great Place to Work UK.

“It’s no secret that the companies with Certified status are continuously putting their employees first” says Claire Knights, Director of Growth & Recognition at Great Place to Work UK. “Certification Nation Day is the perfect opportunity for our Certified companies to celebrate what makes their company great and build upon their employee-first cultures.”

This year we hosted our first international awards programme, where we celebrated the successes and achievements of our global network of staff. On top of this, we celebrate our members every month with regular newsletters highlighting the efforts and contributions of our international team. This creates an environment where employees are encouraged to take risks, challenge and explore their curiosities; and in turn deliver the best results for both ourselves and our clients.

According to Great Place to Work research, job seekers are 4.5 times more likely to find a great boss at a Certified workplace. Additionally, employees at Certified workplaces are 93% more likely to look forward to coming to work and are twice as likely to be paid fairly, earn a fair share of the company’s profits, and have a fair chance at promotion.
