Recognising its exceptional HR practices across 41 countries, STMicroelectronics has received the ‘Top Employer Global’ certification for 2025.
Swiss-based contract semiconductor manufacturer and designer STMicroelectronics has recently earned a ‘Top Employer Global’ certification for the first time in 2025, an accolade given by the Top Employers Institute.
The certification is based on a comprehensive human resources (HR) best practices survey. According to the company, it stood out in areas such as ethics and integrity, purpose and values, organisation and change, business strategy, and performance.
This announcement comes after a recent Bloomberg report that revealed that STMicroelectronics is eyeing restructuring in their business in France and Italy, which could lead to a six per cent reduction of the workforce, mainly voluntary, as a part of a $300 million savings plan.
This year, only 17 companies worldwide received this recognition for their exceptional human resources practices, which apply to STMicroelectronics’ operations in 41 countries.
“A couple of years ago, we began a people-centric transformation to enhance our leadership culture, simplify and digitalise people processes, with the employee journey and experience as our north star,” noted Rajita D’Souza, President of Human Resources and Corporate Social Responsibility at STMicroelectronics, saying that this achievement confirms that the efforts are well-directed.
David Plink, CEO of the Top Employers Institute, expressed his pleasure, commenting, “This certification shows ST’s commitment to creating a better world of work through their HR initiatives and practices, by demonstrating how they support their colleagues across 41 countries.”
The Top Employers Institute’s survey, which includes validation and audits, evaluates six HR domains covering fields like people strategy, work environment, talent acquisition, learning, diversity and inclusion, and wellbeing. Over 2400 companies in 125 countries and regions have been recognised as Top Employers across five continents.
