The Best Employers methodology has been developed by the CRF Institute. The Institute identifies top performers in the areas of HR, leadership and strategy.
In 1991, the CRF Institute was founded as a joint initiative of academics, business journalists, trade associations, researchers and international publishers. With the objective of offering independent HR assessment and acknowledgement, CRF Institute was launched.
Independence and selectivity
David Plink, CEO: "Over the years, we have assessed and certified over 10,000 organisations using our methodology. We strongly value our objectivity, independence and selectivity. As a result current and prospective employees get a good insight what makes the certified organisations so special.”
