Today, on International Women’s Day, workforce management software provider Kronos Incorporated announced that it has been named to the list of 2017 Best Workplaces for Women following a thorough and independent analysis conducted by Great Place to Work Canada.

Additionally, in honour of the International Women’s Day 2017 campaign theme, #BeBoldforChange, the Kronos Women in Business team today released a video montage of Kronite women explaining what Being Bold for Change means to them both professionally and personally.

Some key facts:

• Kronos ranks 16 on the 50 Best Workplaces for Women list, which requires that eligible organizations have a minimum of 50 Canadian women employees, provide a male/female breakdown of their employee population by job level, and have at least a 90 per cent positive response to the statement, “I am treated fairly regardless of my gender.”
• The list of Best Workplaces for Women is based on direct, anonymous feedback from employees of the organizations that were surveyed, and Great Place to Work confirms that the survey data has a 90 per cent confidence with a plus or minus five per cent margin of error.
• To be eligible for the Best Workplaces for Women list, Kronos was first certified as a great workplace by Great Place to Work. In addition to Canada, Kronos is certified as a Great Place to Work in several other regions around the world, including Great Place to Work in Australia, Great Place to Work in India, and Great Place to Work in the U.S., where the company is headquartered.
  • In February 2017, Kronos was honored by Fortune magazine and Great Place to Work as a Best Workplace for Giving Back in the U.S.
• Kronos employs more than 5,000 Kronites worldwide and is actively hiring with nearly 300 Kronos job openings.

Pretty impressive if you ask me as clearly for Kronos, International Women’s Day isn’t an afterthought for them.
