OMNI Helicopters International, Latin America’s leading air mobility solutions provider, has announced that its operations in Guyana, through Omni Helicopters Guyana Inc. (OHGI), have been certified by Great Place To Work.

According to a press release, this prestigious award is based entirely on what current employees say about their experience. This also marks a significant milestone for Guyana as OHGI becomes the first company in the country to receive this recognition.

“Great Place To Work is the global authority on workplace culture, employee experience, and leadership behaviours proven to deliver market-leading revenue, employee retention and increased innovation. The prestigious award is based entirely on what current employees say about their experience working at the company,” OHGI said.

The survey was a group-wide initiative designed to gain insights into employees’ perceptions of the organisation. Specifically, the survey targeted Omni Táxi Aéreo and Revo in Brazil, OHI in Portugal, and OHGI in Guyana with all surveyed organisations successfully attaining the certification.

“Great Place To Work Certification is a highly coveted achievement that requires consistent dedication to the overall employee experience,” the Vice President of Global Recognition at Great Place To Work, Sarah Lewis-Kulin.

Peter Gay, Country Manager for Omni Helicopter Guyana Inc. summarised the importance of this certification, noting: “Our commitment to deliver exceptional customer service can only be achieved through our employees and this type of certification, which benchmarks against the best in the world, is essential to ensure that we are best-in-class and can ensure a positive and consistent employee experience. We’re delighted that our team here in Guyana feels valued and enjoys coming to work at Omni each day, and I thank them for their commitment and dedication.”

The Great Place To Work Certification is the only recognition based entirely on what employees report about their workplace experience – specifically, how consistently they experience a high-trust workplace.

Great Place to Work Certification is a global benchmark for identifying and recognising outstanding employee experience. Every year, more than 10,000 companies across 60 countries apply to get Great Place To Work-Certified.
