Option 1a: Standard "Best Workplaces" Benchmarks

The ability to benchmark your results against other organisations is a powerful way to determine your organisation's relative performance. Standard "Best Workplaces" Benchmarking is our most popular option, and is available at the simple click of a button. The benchmark group used is our JRA Best Workplaces Survey (BWPS) 2010 group, which includes over 30,000 employee responses from over 240 New Zealand organisations.

This option actually gives you three benchmarks:

1. BWPS 2010 All Orgs - includes the responses from all employees from all organisations that participated in the Best Workplaces Survey 2010

When the Best Places to Work Survey closed at the end of August 2010, all participating organisations were ranked according to their overall Performance Index score (using the weighted mean scoring method). Two additional benchmarks have been created with the employee responses from the organisations in the Top 25% of the ranked list, and from the organisations in the Bottom 25% of the ranked list.

2. BWPS 2010 Top 25% - includes the responses from all employees from the Top 25% performing organisations in the Best Workplaces Survey 2010
3. BWPS 2010 Bottom 25% - includes the responses from all employees from the Bottom 25% performing organisations in the Best Workplaces Survey 2010

Benchmarking is possible at all levels of analysis. For example, at the 'Section' level:
