Wellawatta Nithyakalyani Jewellery, a pioneer manufacturer and exporter of jewellery spanning for four decades, was recognised as one of Sri Lanka’s 25 best companies to work for in the annual workplace culture study conducted by Great Place to Work (Sri Lanka) and was honoured at the recently concluded awards ceremony held at the Cinnamon Grand.

Great Place to Work Inc. (USA), a global specialist in high-trust and performance workplace cultures, provides the guidance needed to build, sustain and recognise outstanding workplace cultures. It has reached out to over 100 million employees in 57 countries through 30 years of research in providing a model and benchmarking facility continuously validating what it means to be a great workplace.

In its fifth consecutive year of study in Sri Lanka, over 100 organisations across 16 sectors were validated and Nithyakalyani Jewellery was selected as one of the top 25 companies to work for in Sri Lanka, making it the only jeweller in this elite list. The survey methodology includes a ‘trust index’ which comprises 2/3rd of the study analysing employee perspectives, while the rest is made up of a ‘culture audit’ which analyses management perspectives, all boiling down to trust, pride and camaraderie. “To be placed among some of the respected establishments in Sri Lanka is a great recognition for a family owned business like ours and for the employees who take pride in working for us. We will continue to look at important aspects in improving employee experience and creating the best workplace for them,” said Wellawatta Nithyakalyani Jewellery Associate Partner Dhivakar Balasubramaniam on their achievement.
