The Great Place to Work is considered THE global authority on workplace culture, being the only company culture award that selects winners based on how fairly employees are treated. DHL Express Egypt was nominated this year by the parent global group, as a recognition for achieving high employee engagement that goes beyond 90% over the past three years during the annual employee opinion survey.

    Award recipients are selected from companies that appear on Fortune’s annual list of the 100 best companies to work for, the best 100 workplaces for women, the 100 best workplaces for diversity, and the 150 best small and medium companies to work for. To achieve recognition through the Great Place to Work, DHL Express was assessed according to two indexes, most importantly the Trust Index, which measures the work environment suitability for productivity from employee perspective across five main indices: Credibility, Respect, Fairness, Price, and Camaraderie.
