Ho Chi Minh City, 12 August 2022 – Sparx* – a Virtuos Studio has been awarded as one of the “Best companies to work for in Asia” in 2022 alongside 120 other prominent organizations in Vietnam.
HR Asia Best Companies to Work for in Asia Award (HR Asia Award) is a program organized by HR Asia, Asia’s largest circulating publication for senior HR professionals to recognize the best employers across the region. This is the second consecutive time in which Sparx* has achieved this reputable award recognizing enterprises with the best HR policies and outstanding work environment.
“Receiving the HR Asia –Best Companies to Work for in Asia a second time reflects our constant care and dedication in improving our team members’ work environment and welfare,” said Samuel Stevenin, General Manager at Sparx*.
Award entries are scored through HR Asia’s proprietary Total Engagement Assessment Model (TEAM), deployed as a survey to staff of all nominee companies on three areas of employee engagement:
- CORE (Collective Organization for Real Engagement)
- SELF (Heart, Mind & Soul)
- GROUP (Think, Feel & Do)
We are pleased to share that Sparx*s scores rank above the industry average across all three assessment areas.
