By Vishnu Iruvanti, Head HR, Clear

Hey there! At Clear, we understand how important it is to create a dynamic and diverse workplace that young employees and startup folks, especially from the tech world, would enjoy. We’re more than just a fintech; we want to show you why.

Firstly, we’re all about building a positive and collaborative work environment.

Our company culture is built upon core values that emphasise mutual support and respect among team members. Open communication is highly encouraged, enabling everyone to freely share ideas, express concerns, and provide feedback without fear of judgment. We prioritise teamwork and work-life balance, recognising the importance of fostering a harmonious atmosphere where each individual feels valued and motivated.

But that’s not all! We’re aware that employee engagement is imperative. We go beyond mere clock-punching by actively seeking and valuing the input of our team members. Regular pulse checks conducted every quarter allow us to gather feedback and continuously improve our company based on the suggestions and concerns raised by our employees. By involving them in decision-making processes and considering their ideas, we ensure they feel like an integral part of something meaningful and impactful.

We strongly believe in granting our employees the freedom to take ownership of their work. We avoid micromanagement and encourage our team members to make a real impact by taking charge of their responsibilities. Personal growth is also a key focus for us. This year, we have promoted a significant number of our exceptional employees, entrusting them with increased responsibilities and empowering them to learn and develop on the job. We recognise that personal growth is vital not only for individual success but also for the overall progress of our organisation.

At Clear, we ensure that work is enjoyable and fulfilling. In addition to cultivating a positive culture and prioritising engagement, we have implemented various innovative initiatives to make work more fun and engaging. Our team-building activities, sports days, and community events allow employees to connect, foster relationships, and give back to the community. We also place great importance on recognising and appreciating the hard work of our employees. Through our Monthly, Quarterly, and Annual Red Carpet Award Ceremony, we celebrate their achievements and provide various rewards and bonuses as tokens of appreciation.

By blending our awesome culture and work environment with employee engagement and recognition, we’ve got the recipe for the ultimate workplace at Clear. We’ve checked off all the boxes: positivity, collaboration, work-life balance, and opportunities to grow and develop. We believe in our team, and we want them to feel valued, motivated, and engaged. We’re all about personal success and collective growth.

Furthermore, we understand the significance of our employer brand in attracting top talent. In a highly competitive job market, we distinguish ourselves by actively supporting causes that matter to us and our employees. When our team members share their positive experiences at Clear, it not only validates our commitment to creating an exceptional workplace but also serves as a powerful recruitment tool.

In a nutshell, building the perfect workplace requires a holistic approach that encompasses culture, engagement, recognition, growth, and branding. At Clear, we strive to excel in each of these areas to create an environment where employees feel valued, motivated, and empowered. By prioritising positivity, fostering collaboration, and promoting personal growth, we ensure the success of our employees.
