De Bästa Arbetsplatsernas kulturer

Organisationerna, vars organisationskulturer som vi här presenterar exempel på, har inspirerat oss i vårt arbete och vi hoppas att de kan inspirera er också. Varannan vecka kommer vi att presentera ett nytt exempel på den här platsen - ett från någon europeisk arbetsplats och ett från någon annan av de Bästa Arbetsplatserna i en annan del av världen.

Varje exempel kommer att vara länkat till den dimension och de underdimensioner som det hör ihop med i Great Place to Work® Model©.

Vi hoppas att ni kommer att bli inspirerade att själva se det bästa i organisationskulturen på er egen arbetsplats, och att ni kan utveckla nya goda sidor som hjälper er att göra er arbetsplats till en av de bästa.

  • TROVÄRDIGHET - Konsekvens

    Sjukvård / Sjukhus
    Yakima Memorial Hospital

    1393 medarbetare - USA
    Huvudkontor: Yakima WA, USA

    Yakima Valley Memorial Hospital's emphasis on ethics flows out of its underlying values, which are discussed with new employees and posted prominently. The Business Conduct Committee is responsible for a 24-hour ethics line and ensures every employee signs the Code of Ethical Business Conduct during orientation. The hospital wants employees to know that its reputation is in their hands - and that if an employee isn't willing to take on that responsibility, that person should work somewhere else.

    The code outlines that any ethical problem - defined as anything that makes a person uncomfortable about how the company is doing its business - should be discussed with the person's manager, or the VP, or through the 24-hour line that is maintained by an outside vendor. Issues that have come up include solicitation for personal business while on Hospital time, appropriate use of funds by a manager, and fairness in promotions.

    By publishing the Code of Ethical Business Conduct, Memorial Hospital draws attention to the importance it places on ethics. Employees recognize their role in maintaining high ethical standards, increasing the overall integrity within the workplace, reducing second-guessing, and stopping rumors that could interfere with this healthcare organization's purpose.

  • STOLTHET - Organisationen

    Sjukvård / Tjänster
    Alcon

    5928 medarbetare - USA
    Huvudkontor: Fort Worth Texas, USA

    This eye-care manufacturer staffs a Medical Missions Department with the sole purpose of providing funds, ophthalmic surgical equipment, drugs and eye surgeons to developing countries and some places in the US, free of charge for people who otherwise would never get the medical care they need.

    All employees know about this program. Any ophthalmologist can call Alcon, tell them he/she has a patient who cannot afford the drugs or care needed to save sight and Alcon will ship those drugs to the doctor to dispense to the patient - all free of charge.
