ICMIF member Grupo San Cristóbal (Argentina), an insurance and financial services company with more than 80 years of experience, has recently obtained the Great Place to Work certification for the quality of the culture achieved in the organisation. The company received its first globally recognised and trusted one-year certification badge.

The results were obtained from the Voices (in Spanish, “Voces”) programme, the work climate survey promoted by Grupo San Cristóbal, in which 86% of the employees took part. Some of the qualities that stand out are good treatment within the company, regardless of the position, with 86% of positive responses. A total of 75% of Grupo San Cristóbal employees say they are in an excellent place to work.

“This certification marks the path towards where we want to go as a 100% sustainable and integral organisation. Being recognised as an outstanding place to work fills us with pride and drives us to continue transforming our culture to generate a positive impact on every member of our team”, says Laura Valeiro, People and Wellbeing Manager at Grupo San Cristóbal.

This standard is awarded exclusively on the basis of employee feedback. To obtain this certification, companies have to answer a survey and provide information about the company’s culture through their employees. The survey contains 60 statements that probe employees’ perceptions of what they experience in their workplace through trust-related behaviours (Credibility, Respect, Fairness, Pride and Camaraderie). The badge is a globally recognised and trusted symbol of excellence, indicating that a company is committed to providing a positive, supportive and fulfilling work environment for all employees.
