Merz Aesthetics Crowned Asia’s Best Workplace 2025

Merz Aesthetics, a leader in the medical aesthetics sector, has secured the top position in the Best Workplaces in Asia 2025 list for the Small & Medium Business category, as recognized by Great Place To Work. This accolade highlights the company’s commitment to fostering a culture that prioritizes inclusivity and employee well-being.

With a rich history spanning 117 years as a family-owned business, Merz Aesthetics has consistently focused on long-term success through investments in its workforce and a commitment to innovation. The company believes that sustainable growth stems not only from robust business outcomes but also from creating an environment where employees feel valued and connected.

Recognition Reflects Employee Values

Commenting on this significant achievement, Lawrence Siow, President of APAC at Merz Aesthetics, expressed pride in the accolade. “Being awarded the No.1 under Best Workplaces in Asia 2025 is a proud moment for all of us at Merz Aesthetics. It reflects the confidence, trust, and passion our people bring to work each day,” Siow stated. He emphasized that this recognition is a celebration of the shared purpose and leadership principles that guide the organization.

The selection process for the Best Workplaces in Asia list involved surveying over 3.2 million employees across various companies in Asia and the Middle East. The survey data represents the work experiences of more than 7.5 million employees in the region. Companies were eligible for consideration only after being recognized in their local Best Workplaces Lists.

This latest recognition follows a series of accolades for Merz Aesthetics, including wins for Singapore’s Best Workplaces in Healthcare & Biopharma and Best Workplaces in Korea in both 2024 and 2025. The company has also received Great Place To Work 2025 certification in Australia, Greater China, Korea, Singapore, and Thailand, further underscoring its commitment to building a strong and sustainable workplace culture.

Voices of the Workforce

Karen Tay, Vice President of Core Services at Merz Aesthetics, highlighted the importance of employee feedback in achieving this recognition. “This win is a testament to the genuine dedication and passion of our teams throughout the region. What makes this achievement truly meaningful is that it is rooted in the voices and experiences of our own people,” Tay remarked. She noted that the culture at Merz Aesthetics values every individual’s contributions, fostering an inclusive environment.

The Best Workplaces in Asia list is published annually by Great Place To Work, which utilizes comprehensive surveys to assess workplace culture. In order to qualify, companies must first achieve recognition in their local regions, demonstrating excellence in employee experience.
