NTT DATA, a global leader in AI, digital business and technology services, announces it has been certified as a Global Top Employer for 2026 by the Top Employers Institute. Recognized for the third year in a row, this prestigious honor places NTT DATA among a select group of just 17 organizations worldwide honored for consistently delivering a high-performing people strategy across its global operations.

In addition to its global recognition, NTT DATA has also earned four Top Employer 2026 regional seals and 37 country and region seals across North America, Latin America, Asia Pacific, Europe and Africa. The Global Certification is the highest level of recognition offered by the Top Employers Institute and underscores NTT DATA’s ability to align its leadership, leverage data-driven insights and apply validated best practices to drive business performance, employee engagement and growth.

The Top Employers Institute certifies organizations based on the results from its extensively researched HR Best Practices Survey followed by a thorough evaluation by a dedicated set of HR auditors. This comprehensive survey covers six HR domains consisting of 20 topics, including People Strategy, Work Environment, Talent Acquisition, Learning, Diversity, Equity and Inclusion and Wellbeing.

Being recognized as a Global Top Employer for the third year in a row reflects the importance we place on creating a workplace where people feel respected, supported and empowered to perform at their best.”
