The rating agency examined the attractiveness of 679 domestic companies and shows in the large ranking which companies enjoy a particularly good reputation among the population.
This year, ServiceValue has once again conducted an Austria-wide survey to find out which companies enjoy a particularly good reputation as employers among the population. Specifically, the agency evaluated 679 companies in the study “Austria’s Best Employers 2024” based on more than 200,000 customer reviews (see info box). A minimum requirement for all employers and at the same time their duty is to ensure the safety and health of employees in relation to all work-related aspects. However, only employers who go beyond this and score points with other criteria are really attractive.
Top 25
The 25 best employers in 2024 all received a rating of “very high attractiveness” and achieved an average of 2.42 to 2.55. Manner landed at the top of the podium, followed by Stiehl and Stiegl. From the respondents’ point of view, these companies currently have the highest attractiveness as employers. Last year, the ÖAMTC was still ahead.

Employee retention is becoming increasingly important
“Hardly any employee is now employed by one and the same company from training to retirement,” comments Claus Dethloff, Managing Director of ServiceValue GmbH, adding, “with a growing willingness and motivation among employees to change jobs, it is becoming even more important for employers to devote even more energy to employee retention and to make career paths even more attractive for potential new applicants.”

methodology
The study consists of surveys via online panels. Citizens are asked to rate companies with which they themselves or people they know are in direct contact in terms of their quality as employers. Specifically, the question is: “How do you rate [Unternehmen X] the image or attractiveness as an employer?”
Based on the respondents’ opinions, an unweighted average is calculated for each company using a five-point response scale, which then determines the company’s position in the ranking. Companies with above-average scores receive the “high employer attractiveness” award. Companies that also perform above average within this group receive the “very high employer attractiveness” award. The survey is carried out without the participation of the companies being evaluated.
