To determine the 2025 UK鈥檚 Best Workplaces鈩�, Great Place To Work庐 analysed confidential survey feedback shared by 285,000 employees working across the United Kingdom.
Employees responded to over 60 survey questions describing the extent to which their organisation creates a 鈥榞reat place to work鈥� For All鈩�. Eighty-five percent of the evaluation is based on what employees say about their experiences of trust and reaching their full human potential as part of their organisation, no matter who they are or what they do. Great Place To Work庐 analysed these experiences relative to each organisation鈥檚 size, workforce makeup, and what鈥檚 typical relative to their industry peers. The remaining 15% of an organisation鈥檚 rank is based on an assessment of employees鈥� daily experiences of innovation, the company鈥檚 values, and the effectiveness of their leaders, to ensure a consistent experience across departments and seniority levels.
