Evaluation for the KelpHR PoSH Awards® 2022 – Top 25 Safest Workplaces in India
The process of evaluation in the third edition of KelpHR PoSH Awards ® 2022 – Top 25 Safest Workplaces in India is aimed at enabling organisations with insights & milestones to help build safer, happier & more inclusive workplaces as it takes much more than legal compliance to build workplaces that we aspire for & dream of creating.
