UKG, a leading provider of HR, payroll, and workforce management solutions for all people, is one of the World’s Best Companies of 2023, according to TIME magazine. The inaugural list honors companies from across industries with great workplace cultures, continued business growth, and positive sustainability practices.

The recognition is the latest in a string of recent workplace-culture accolades for UKG. This includes Forbes naming the company one of America’s Best Employers for Women and for Diversity, as well as Newsweek featuring UKG on its America’s Greatest Workplaces list and separate Newsweek lists for Diversity and for Women. Last month, UKG earned a SHRM India HR Excellence award for “Excellence in Talent Acquisition,” celebrating practices that redefine talent acquisition and the employee experience in becoming an “employer of choice” worldwide.

UKG is also Great Place To Work™ Certified in all 10 countries where it has a significant employee presence. Obtaining the annual certification is based on a global Trust Index survey of employees that measures whether companies are providing a great workplace for every employee, no matter where they work or their role in the organization, through the For All Methodology and Trust Model.

“We are on a mission to inspire every organization to become a great place to work, and that starts with what we’re doing for our 15,000 U Krewers, and through the people-focused technology we provide for 80,000 UKG customers,” said Pat Wadors, chief people officer at UKG. “We aspire to be a live-action case study on what it takes to foster a culture for all people that, in turn, leads to better business results. How we treat and inspire our own people directly impacts the way we design, deliver, and support our HCM solutions for our customers and their tens of millions of employees across the globe.”

Building an Ecosystem of Equity for All

Operating with a belief that diversity, equity, inclusion, belonging, and social impact are all business imperatives, UKG encourages a culture of belonging that fosters an inclusive environment, celebrates individual differences, and maximizes innovation. The UKG Belonging, Equity, and Impact (BE&I) strategy centers on the theme “Uniquely you. Uniquely valued. Uniquely empowered.” BE&I’s programs include four pillars to support this purpose both at UKG and beyond: creating opportunities for every person, enriching every workplace culture, uplifting every community, and showcasing the competitive advantage.
