Flight Centre Travel Group New Zealand is proud to have officially earned Great Place to Work Certification following a global employee survey.
The survey, sent to all Flight Centre Travel Group employees around the world, asked employees what they were thinking and feeling about their job, their team and the company as a whole.
It was run by a third party, Great Place to Work, who are a global authority on workplace culture and conduct the same survey with other companies all over the world.
Flight Centre Travel Group NZ general manager of people and culture Melanie Barnett says achieving the certification is a nod to the people-focussed culture that Flight Centre Travel Group has always prioritised.
“Because employee feedback, as well as independent analysis determine the scores – it’s great to know that it was our people that ultimately gave us this badge of honour.”
Additionally, certification gives employers a recruiting advantage by providing a globally recognised and research-backed verification of a great employee experience.
“This will be a fantastic tool for us to use to attract great talent to join the team as demand for travel remains high,” says Melanie.
Other Flight Centre Travel Group regions that earned certification include Australia, Cambodia, Canada, China, Costa Rica, Denmark, Dominican Republic, Germany, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Mexico, Philippines, Singapore, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, UAE, United Kingdom, United States and Vietnam.
“It’s pretty telling about the incredible culture we have here at Flight Centre Travel Group when our employees all around the world are saying the same thing.”
As with any survey – Melanie acknowledges they are not unaware of the fact that there will be areas that need improvement.
“We’ll be working to better understand the results over the coming weeks and will be putting actions in place to address any areas that we can improve so we can become an even, ‘greater’ place to work.”
