SAS – One of Australia’s Best Companies to Work For

International recognition of SAS Australia’s open communication culture and participatory management ethos

SYDNEY, Australia  (30 Apr 2009)  –  The Australian arm of SAS – the leader in business analytics – has been named as one of this country’s best employers by the international Great Place to Work Institute.  SAS Australia has featured in BRW Magazine’s 50 Best Companies to Work For, 2009. 

Acknowledging this coveted accolade, SAS Australia and New Zealand managing director, Gordon Clubb, said, “This is a welcome piece of good news locally.  It’s about the great spirit of team work and the can-do attitude of all our people.  We like to think we look after our people very well, and doing so is not just a social responsibility – it’s prudent business.

“It reflects the very culture that has been inculcated throughout our global organisation over the past twenty years and more.  It’s a tribute to the quality of our people here; to the way that each and every one of them has embraced that never flagging, totally customer-focused pursuit of the best results.

In recognising SAS, the international Great Place to Work Institute cited, – amongst other attributes – the establishing of an open communication environment at all levels of the organisation.  It noted that employees at all levels are exposed to the wider aspects of the business and become actively involved in shaping objectives, resolving issues and planning for the future.
