Basel, October 22, 2013 – Novartis is pleased to announce that it has been named among the Top 25 World’s Best Multinational Workplaces by the Great Place to Work® Institute. The list is the world’s largest annual study of workplace excellence, identifying the top 25 best multinationals in terms of workplace culture.

The list measures workplaces through five dimensions: credibility, respect and fairness (attributes of trust), as well as pride and camaraderie. Novartis ranked highly on the pride associates take in their work, their teams and the organization. The company also scored well for its credibility and camaraderie among employees. Overall, Novartis received a high score on the Trust Index®, which measures employee perceptions of their workplace.

“At Novartis we are driven by our mission of caring and curing. We strive to attract and retain talented associates who are passionate about improving patients’ lives,” said Joseph Jimenez, CEO of Novartis. “Being recognized as one of the world’s 25 best workplaces reinforces our strong belief that deeply believing in a higher purpose for the organization builds strong associate engagement, and is critical to building a world-leading culture.”

Novartis also encourages its employees to become more involved in their personal health through Be Healthy, the company’s global health and well-being program. Great Place to Work® also recognized the Be Healthy Celebration Week as a “Best People Practice.”
