Trident Group Certified by Great Place To Work with 95% Employee Trust Score
Trident Group, a global leader in home-textile manufacturing and terry towels, and a pioneer in wheat-straw-based paper production, has received the Great Place To Work certification for the first time. The certification is based entirely on anonymous employee feedback, with 95% of Trident's workforce stating that the company is a great place to work. This figure significantly surpasses the national average for workplace satisfaction in India.
Great Place To Work is the global authority on workplace culture, employee experience, and leadership behaviors that drive market-leading revenue, employee retention, and innovation. The certification process relies solely on real-time employee reports about their experience of trust, fairness, and respect within the organization.
Commitment to Employee Wellbeing Amid Technological Disruption
According to the company, the recognition reflects Trident Group's commitment to fostering a culture where every employee feels safe, valued, and respected, especially during a period of exceptional technological disruption and workplace uncertainty. Pooja Luthra, Group Chief Human Resources Officer at Trident Group India, stated, "While we've always been ahead of the industry on employee wellbeing, being recognised by Great Place To Work is truly rewarding and has set the standard for a high-trust, high-performance culture." She added, "The 95% score matters most because it comes directly from our members. It tells us they feel part of a workplace where trust is high and performance is fairly rewarded."
Forward-Looking Policies: Menstrual Leave, Paternity Leave, and Flexible Benefits
The certification follows years of investment in progressive policies tailored to a diverse, modern workforce. Trident's employee benefits include menstrual leave, paternity leave, adoption assistance, and flexible short leaves that allow employees to manage health and personal commitments without trade-offs. These are complemented by health and life insurance, regular health check-ups, and lifestyle benefits covering rental, travel, dining, and shopping. Such initiatives demonstrate the company's investment in employee wellbeing both at work and beyond.
Global Recognition and Industry Impact
Sarah Lewis-Kulin, Vice President of Global Recognition at Great Place To Work, emphasized the significance of the certification. "Great Place To Work Certification is a highly coveted achievement that requires consistent and intentional dedication to the overall employee experience," she said. She noted that certification is the sole official recognition earned by real-time employee feedback on company culture. "By successfully earning this recognition, it is evident that Trident Group stands out as one of the top companies to work for, providing a great workplace environment for its employees."
According to Great Place To Work research, job seekers are 4.5 times more likely to find a great boss at a certified great 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 company profits, and have a fair chance at promotion.
