Indonesia's Top Employers Forge the Future of Work: HR Asia Honors 80 Companies in Talent Innovation
JAKARTA, Indonesia, July 1, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- HR Asia Best Companies to Work for in Asia proudly honours 80 organizations that exemplify excellence in human capital strategy and workplace culture. This year's ceremony arrives as Indonesian companies navigate critical challenges in talent retention, multigenerational workforce integration, and shifting employee expectations. In response, many winners have embraced flexible and inclusive workplace policies, offering hybrid work models, multilingual communication channels, and benefits tailored to diverse generational needs. By recognizing the unique motivators of the different generations in the workplace, these companies are crafting environments where every talent feels understood and valued. Work–life balance has risen to the top of employee priorities. Recent research by Korn Ferry Indonesia shows that 47% of professionals now rate flexible schedules and well–being support above compensation as their primary retention factors. Empowered by insights from the HR Asia benchmarking process, winners have launched comprehensive wellness programs, incorporated financial counseling, and provided on–site childcare, translating data into action that boosts both morale and productivity. Managing a multigenerational workforce remains a complex task. Leading organizations are implementing tailored L&D strategies—from bite–sized e–learning modules to executive coaching—designed to meet the distinct learning preferences of each age group. By leveraging HR Asia's scorecard feedback and participating in peer–learning workshops, these companies report a 35% increase in training completion rates and stronger cross–generation collaboration. "In today's dynamic talent landscape, success hinges on understanding people first," said William Ng, Group Publisher of HR Asia. "Our program uncovers real data and connects leaders in a community of practice—fueling bold, people–centric strategies that truly shift the landscape." This year also celebrates the debut of the HR Asia Tech Empowerment Awards, recognizing organizations that harness technology–driven processes, predictive analytics, and immersive learning platforms to elevate employee experiences. These digital trailblazers are not just solving problems—they're reimagining what a modern workplace can achieve. A highlight of the evening was the recognition of Platinum honoree PT Bank Maybank Indonesia Tbk, named a HR Asia Best Company to Work for in Asia for the 10th consecutive year. Their sustained leadership—built on continuous digital upskilling, diversity–focused talent programs, and agile work arrangements—sets a benchmark for peers across the region. The HR Asia Best Companies to Work for in Asia is organized by Business Media International and covers fifteen markets across the region including mainland China, Cambodia, Hong Kong, Indonesia, India, Japan, Korea, Macau, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand, United Arab Emirates, and Vietnam, making this the largest recognition program and survey in the region for employee engagement.

HR Asia Celebrates a Decade of Recognizing Hong Kong's Best Workplaces Amid Evolving Talent Challenges
HONG KONG, May 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- HR Asia proudly marks the 10th anniversary of its prestigious "Best Companies to Work for in Asia – Hong Kong" awards, honoring 48 organizations that exemplify excellence in human capital strategy and workplace culture. This milestone comes at a time when Hong Kong's corporate landscape faces unprecedented challenges in talent retention, multigenerational workforce integration, and the evolving expectations of a new generation of employees. Hong Kong companies are increasingly adopting flexible and inclusive workplace policies to attract and retain talent. Experts emphasize the need for multilingual environments and recognition of diverse generational needs to make workplaces more appealing. Work-life balance has emerged as a pivotal factor in talent attraction and retention. According to Randstad Hong Kong, it has overtaken salary and benefits as the most important employee value proposition, highlighting a shift in employee priorities. Moreover, managing a multigenerational workforce presents unique challenges. Organizations are encouraged to tailor learning and development strategies to accommodate varying preferences across age groups, ensuring effective upskilling and engagement. As Hong Kong navigates the complexities of a dynamic workforce landscape, the HR Asia "Best Companies to Work for in Asia" awards continue to recognize organizations that exemplify adaptability, inclusivity, and innovation. These companies not only set industry standards but also inspire others to reimagine their approaches to human capital management in an ever-evolving world. "Over the past decade, we've seen a seismic shift in how organizations engage with talent — and the most successful companies are those that don't just react, but anticipate." said William Ng, Group Publisher of HR Asia. "In Hong Kong, where generational diversity and digital disruption converge, the best employers are those that listen deeply, adapt swiftly, and empower boldly. This year's winners exemplify what it means to build not just a workforce, but a future-ready culture." 2025 marks the launch of the HR Asia Tech Empowerment Awards, a new category that celebrates organizations at the forefront of workplace innovation. This accolade honors companies that harness cutting-edge technology — whether through hardware or software — to elevate employee experience, streamline operations, and drive meaningful productivity gains. It reflects a growing recognition that digital empowerment is now central to building agile, future-ready workplaces. Another major highlight of this year's event was the recognition of Platinum winners — companies that have achieved the extraordinary distinction of being named Best Companies to Work for in Asia for ten consecutive years. This rare accomplishment underscores a decade-long dedication to cultivating world-class workplace cultures. The 2025 Platinum honorees in Hong Kong are Avery Dennison Hong Kong B.V. and Lee Kum Kee Group — both examples of consistency, innovation, and unwavering people-first values. The award covers fifteen markets across the region including mainland China, Cambodia, Hong Kong, Indonesia, India, Japan, Korea, Macau, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand, United Arab Emirates, and Vietnam, making this the largest recognition program and survey in the region for employee engagement.
