Our sincere congratulations to all of the 2016 winners!”
TCS received this award in both the US and Canada for its benchmarked employee engagement practices and ‘Employee Value Proposition,’ which enables its robust talent pool to constantly learn new skills and assume new roles, resulting in increased employee satisfaction and customer service levels. Furthermore, it was cited for its global internal social networking tool, Knome, which fosters a highly engaged workforce across levels, geographies, divisions, and roles, and its extensive corporate social responsibility initiatives, with 15,000 North American employees dedicating more than 42,000 hours in 2015 to address pressing societal needs in the areas of education, health and environment.
