Biocon claims one more step upward in ladder to be ranked among top 5 Biotech Employers Globally

Bengaluru, Oct 30 (UNI) Biocon Ltd, an innovation-led global biopharmaceuticals company, has claimed one more step upward in the ladder to get itself ranked among the Top 5 Global Biotech Employers for 2020 on the prestigious US based Science magazine’s annual ‘Science Careers Top 20 Employers’ list.
Ranked at No 5 among global pharma and biotech companies in 2020, Biocon has moved up steadily from No 7 in 2018 and No 6 in 2019.
The company has consistently featured among the top global employers for eight consecutive years, since its debut on the list in 2012, according to a release here on Friday.
According to the Top Employers Survey of approximately 7,600 respondents from across the world this year, Biocon’s ranking was based on three key attributes: ‘innovative leader in the industry’, ‘is socially responsible’ and ‘has loyal employees’. This year, the survey took place from March 3 through May 3, when companies globally were grappling with quarantines and lockdowns in response to COVID-19. In these extraordinary circumstances, Biocon reinforced its reputation of resilience and reliability by continuing to manufacture and supply life-saving therapies worldwide while prioritizing the health and safety of its employees through comprehensive safety measures at its facilities.
Biocon Executive Chairperson Kiran Mazumdar-Shaw said, “The ranking is a recognition of the passion that our employees bring to the job, which allowed us to run essential and critical manufacturing, quality and supply operations with reduced staffing despite the severe disruptions caused by the COVID-19 outbreak, thus minimizing the impact on patients and partners.Their commitment also enabled us to rapidly develop novel therapeutics for the deadly coronavirus and serve humanity by fighting COVID-19.”
“We will continue to build on Biocon’s employee-friendly culture that promotes ideation, experimentation and collaboration as we aspire to create future leaders who will revolutionize healthcare through innovative products and services,” she added.
The Top 5 global players in this year’s list are Regeneron, Alnylam, Incyte, Syngenta and Biocon.
Biocon was ahead of leading global pharma companies like Novo Nordisk, Roche, Eli Lilly, Abbott, Novartis, Pfizer etc. in the 2020 rankings.
