Ewos Chile receives Great Place to Work award
Ewos Chile is in the 32th position this year among the 35 best Chilean workplaces* according to the ranking produced by the Great Place to Work© Institute. This is the first time Great Place to Work awards a company related to fish farming in Chile. Besides, Ewos Chile is the only company this year with headquarters located out of Santiago, the Chilean capitol city.
"We are very glad of this recognition, which reflects all the hard work we have been doing for so many years. The gratifying working environment we perceive everyday together with this kind of recognitions demonstrate that we are on the right path. It is also a very good sign that a company belonging to fish farming is present in this kind of rankings. We are sure that this is the path through which we want to continue," said Andrés Tagle, general manager of Ewos Chile.
Ewos Chile has almost 400 employees, located in the regions of Bío Bío, Los Lagos and Aysén. This is the largest fish feed company in Chile, with a market share of 32% and has the world's largest manufacturing plant for salmon feed.
Ewos Chile is part of the Norwegian group Cermaq operating in Chile, Norway, Canada, Scotland and Vietnam.
*Companies nominated for Best Companies to Work For lists must go through an application process and are selected and ranked predominantly on the basis of employees’ response to the Trust Index© Survey (2/3s of the score) which measures employee perception of the workplace. The Culture Audit©, completed by management and evaluated by an independent Great Place to Work team, accounts for approximately 1/3 of the total score. Companies receiving high scores on these assessments appear on the lists; and the highest scores enjoy the highest rankings on those lists.
