Why Transparency and Employee Engagement Matter

Did you know that 96% of job seekers say it’s important to work for a company that embraces transparency? Or that 69% agree their perception of a company improves after seeing an employer respond to a review? Today’s job seekers clearly value employer engagement.

With that in mind, we’re introducing a new status icon that recognizes engaged employers. On every company profile, you’ll now see a status icon signaling an employer’s level of engagement on Glassdoor.

How do you start? First, sign up for a Glassdoor Free Employer Account. Besides being able to update basic company information, you’ll have a platform to start engaging employees and job seekers visiting your profile. For example, a Glassdoor Free Employer Account lets you respond to reviews of your company, adding the “employer perspective.”

As you actively update your profile and engage employees, you’ll be on your way to achieving our highest level of engagement, OpenCompany status. An OpenCompany badge is a strong signal to jobseekers and employees that you value transparency and employee engagement.

This is a good thing. Industry studies show that employers who engage their employees outperform the competition.
