Tata Consultancy Services (BSE: 532540, NSE: TCS), a leading global IT services, consulting and business solutions organisation, has been recognised as the UK’s #1 Top Employer by the Top Employers Institute.

TCS is one of just 70 employers to receive a Top Employers accreditation, which is based on in-depth research into nine core HR criteria: Talent Strategy, Workforce Planning, On-boarding, Learning & Development, Performance Management, Leadership Development, Career & Succession Management, Compensation & Benefits and Company Culture.

Established in 1991, the Top Employers certification is designed to identify and recognise the world’s leading organisations in the field of HR management and employee conditions. The award of the certification is based on an industry-leading  research methodology, conducted by the Top Employers Institute and audited by Grant Thornton.

Nupur Singh Mallick, HR Director, Tata Consultancy Services UK & Ireland, commented, “We are delighted to have been awarded the UK’s number one Top Employer for the second year running and are looking forward to building on this progress as we continue to invest in training and development for our staff. As one of the UK’s biggest IT and digital employers, TCS’ priority has always been to create a positive, inspiring environment for its employees, giving them a platform to help them realise their potential and our clients access to a world-class talent pool.”

Eleanor Nickerson, Director of UK Operations for the Top Employers Institute, commented, “The Top Employers Institute examines the HR practices and offerings that each participating company puts in place for its people, to create and maintain optimal employee conditions. Our in-depth examination concluded that Tata Consultancy Services  provides an outstanding employee experience, with high quality initiatives that engage, reward and motivate employees, ensuring that people can develop themselves personally and professionally, and build a rewarding career.”

TCS has a UK workforce of more than 11,000 employees based across 30 locations, including London, Edinburgh, Manchester, Leeds, Ipswich, Norwich, Peterborough and Liverpool. The company delivers digital projects in the UK for more than 150 customers, including Boots, BT, Diageo, National Grid, Nationwide, NEST, Marks & Spencer, Thames Water and Virgin Atlantic.

This is sixth consecutive year that TCS has certified as one of the UK’s Top Employers,  and builds on a number of recent awards in recognition of the company’s employee engagement and development activities. TCS was named Company of the Year at the 2016 Employee Engagement Awards, won in the Performance and Reward category at the 2015 CIPD People Management awards,  was awarded Gold status for Learning Professional of the Year, and was recently recognised as an ASTD Champion of Learning for the eighth year in a row.
