Purpose of the certification.

The purpose of the Happy Workplace Certification Program is to credit companies that manage to develop a great culture and a workplace where people thrive.

By creating transparency, we give access to a competitive advantage for companies to draw upon in terms of retention and employer branding. Companies receiving a certification from Zoios have employees with great well-being and low stress levels.

Our aim is simultaneously to assist potential employees in evaluating prospective workplaces based on the level of well-being and job satisfaction among current employees.

πŸ†Β The certifications are granted two times per year; in September and in March. Therefore, the certification is valid for 6 months until next round.
