This distinction reaffirms the company’s commitment to the well-being, inclusion, and holistic development of its team.
Green Gold Forestry Peru (GGF), a Peruvian company pioneering in Improved Forest Management (IFM) projects, has been officially recognized as a Great Place to Work, one of the most prestigious certifications worldwide in organizational culture and workplace climate. This achievement, which the company had also obtained in 2023, further reinforces its ongoing commitment to employee well-being and the creation of a positive work environment.
“This certification evaluates how our employees feel in their work environment—day-to-day with their colleagues, leaders, and in relation to the processes that exist within the company,” explained David Lazo, Head of Human Resources at Green Gold Forestry Peru. “The results allow us to identify both strengths and opportunities for improvement, which in turn position us in both national and international rankings.”
One of the most valuable findings of this assessment is that employees recognize the company’s pursuit of a purpose that goes beyond financial results. Their daily work, aside from the net benefits the organization may generate, contributes directly to a significant social and environmental impact, strengthening their pride in belonging to GGF and reinforcing their sense of positive contribution to the Peruvian Amazon.
The results once again place GGF among the best companies to work for in Peru, validating its internal culture and strengthening its corporate reputation.
“Perceptions of workplace climate are essential not only for understanding how we coexist on a daily basis, but also for fostering a genuine commitment between the company and its people,” added Lazo. “The Great Place to Work seal also allows us to demonstrate externally that we are a company that prioritizes harmony, communication, respect, teamwork, and empathy.”
This recognition adds to Green Gold Forestry Peru’s ongoing efforts to protect more than 394,875 hectares of Amazon rainforest, preventing carbon emissions through sustainable practices that generate a positive social impact. Its business model not only preserves ecosystems but also creates opportunities for neighboring Amazonian communities.
