SINGAPORE: Tech giant Apple has retained its ranking as Singapore’s best employer in an annual league table compiled by The Straits Times and global research company Statista.
Rounding up the top five are Asia Pacific Breweries Singapore (Heineken Asia Pacific), BMW Group Asia, The Lego Group and GSK.
Singapore’s Best Employers 2025 ranks the top 250 firms among companies and institutions with at least 200 employees.
It is based on an online survey conducted in October and November 2024 that allowed eligible employees to recommend their own company as well as other employers within the same sector.
The survey attracted responses from about 14,000 staff from 2,000 or so organisations in 27 sectors.
The sector with the most number of employers was government services, with 24 on the top 250 list this year, said Statista analyst Wu Ruoh-Yiang.
The sector includes ministries and statutory boards.
Topping the government services sector list was the Singapore Civil Defence Force at 81st overall, followed by sovereign wealth fund GIC (83) and the Defence Science and Technology Agency (90).
Wu noted that there has been a steady increase in the number of awardees within the government services sector over the past five years.
“This strong showing may be linked to Singapore’s global reputation for government excellence,” she said. — The Straits Times/ANN
