Otis China Wins Awards for Innovation, Leadership and More

Otis strives to be an employer of choice everywhere it operates, cultivating a diverse and inclusive workplace that empowers industry-leading innovation and customer service.

In China, three recent awards recognize these efforts.

The Economic Observer: Innovative Enterprise Award and Outstanding Multinational Leader of 2021

The Economic Observer honored Otis China for leadership and digitalization at its recent Global Business Leaders Forum.

With the Innovative Enterprise Award, judges noted that Otis China has built a smart elevator ecosystem using Internet of Things technology that substantially enhances elevator energy efficiency and safety in line with smart city development – an important part of China’s long-term goals.

The publication also recognized Otis China President Perry Zheng with its Outstanding Multinational Leader of 2021 award. In addition to leading Otis China, Zheng is Global Chief Customer and Product Strategy Officer.

“We are honored to receive these two awards,” Zheng said. “Otis is responding to China’s call for high-quality development and promoting digital innovation to transform the traditional elevator industry and empower smart cities.”

Top Employer Institute: Top Employer Award

Otis China also received recognition as a top employer from the Top Employer Institute. The certification distinguishes Otis as an organization dedicated to creating a better workplace through industry-leading HR policies and practices. It is awarded based on HR practices across six domains: people strategy, work environment, talent acquisition, learning, wellbeing, and diversity and inclusion.

Zheng accepted the award on behalf of Otis China, saying, “Otis is committed to cultivating a diverse and inclusive workplace that enables all of our people to nurture their strengths and reach their potential. In this, we are guided every day by our three Otis Absolutes: Quality, Safety and Ethics. We are extremely proud that Otis has been recognized as a Top Employer in China.
