In celebrating the winners of The Hindu Best Places to Work Awards 2026, special recognition is also merited for the organisations designated as “Highly Commended”. These companies represent a powerful and growing movement across Indian industry, demonstrating a sustained and genuine commitment to building superior workplace environments.
Their inclusion on this list signifies that they have successfully cultivated cultures where employees feel valued, heard, and empowered. These organisations are distinguished by their ability to translate positive intent into meaningful action — they actively listen to their people, act on the feedback they receive, and embed people-first practices into their everyday operations and leadership styles. This approach goes beyond mere policy, reflecting a culture that is lived, experienced, and continuously strengthened from within.
