Australia's "best places to work" for 2017 have been named in an annual benchmark study released on Tuesday, with a focus on workplace wellbeing, health and fitness being voted the key aspects of company success. Manufacturing and production company Mars Australia topped the list for organisations employing more than 1000 workers for its focus on new technologies and worker feedback system, in research firm Great Place To Work's (GPTW) '2017 50 Best Places To Work' report. So, what makes a company one of the best places to work in Australia? According to Zrinka Lovrencic, the Managing Director of GPTW, the idea of "a great workplace" is no longer an option for Australian businesses -- it's a must. "Being a great workplace is no longer seen as 'nice to have'; today it is imperative to business vitality and success," she said.
