Navi Mumbai, January 5, 2026: Drychem India Private Limited has been certified as a Great Place To Work® for the second consecutive year by the Great Place To Work® Institute, India. The consecutive certification reflects the company’s consistent efforts to nurture a high-trust, people-first workplace where collaboration, accountability, and growth are deeply embedded in everyday practices.
The certification is based entirely on employee feedback gathered through the Trust Index® Survey, reinforcing the authenticity and credibility of the recognition. Employees expressed strong confidence across key aspects of workplace culture, including leadership credibility, respect and fairness, pride in the organisation, and a strong sense of camaraderie and teamwork.
As part of the assessment, Drychem recorded an overall average score of 84% on the Great Place To Work® Model, with employees affirming that Drychem is a Great Place To Work. The survey witnessed a 93% participation rate, significantly higher than the benchmark for mid-sized organisations. Employees highlighted pride in the organisation, effective team collaboration, manager approachability, and a safe, supportive work environment as key strengths.
The survey covered all eligible employees across locations and was conducted anonymously and confidentially, independently administered by Great Place To Work®. This ensured candid participation and an accurate representation of the employee experience across the organisation.
Recognition and development form the backbone of Drychem’s workplace culture. Initiatives such as the Hi-Five Program, Emerging Leaders Club (EL), and the DSC and GEM Programs are designed to acknowledge real-time achievements, reward consistent performance, and recognise impactful contributions across functions. By embedding recognition into daily work life, these programs strengthen engagement while reinforcing shared ownership of outcomes.
Speaking on the achievement, Kaushal Mehta, Managing Director, Walplast Products Pvt. Ltd., said, “This certification matters because it reflects how our people experience Drychem every day. We focus on keeping leadership approachable, recognising effort as it happens, and creating real opportunities for learning and movement within the organisation. Whether it’s through open conversations, leadership development programs, or simply making it easier for teams to work across functions, our intent is to build trust through action. The feedback from our employees tells us we’re moving in the right direction, and it pushes us to keep improving.”
Drychem’s leadership approach is anchored in accessibility, transparency, and empathy. Leaders actively engage with teams, encourage cross-functional collaboration, and maintain open channels of communication. Regular surveys and ongoing dialogue help align organisational initiatives with employee aspirations, while internal success stories, ranging from key milestones to problem-solving efforts, are shared to inspire learning and motivation across teams.
Continuous learning is another cornerstone of Drychem’s people strategy. Through its Learning Management System (LMS) and role-transition opportunities, employees are supported in building new capabilities and exploring growth pathways aligned with organisational priorities. Data-driven insights are used to refine policies and programs, ensuring they remain relevant, practical, and impactful.
This consecutive Great Place To Work® Certification reinforces Drychem’s position as an employer of choice, strengthens its employer brand, and validates its internal culture against a globally recognised benchmark. More importantly, it reflects the company’s long-term commitment to creating a workplace built on trust, recognition, and shared success.
