Employer recognition & branding

Recognition you can stand behind — with a mark that can be verified.

Certified organisations receive approved use of the WWEC Certification Mark, a public verification record and recognition assets for use within the certified scope and validity period.

What certified organisations can do

Put verified recognition to work.

  • Display the approved WWEC Certification Mark on your website, careers page and offices.
  • Reference certification in employer branding, recruitment and investor materials.
  • Point candidates, employees and partners to a live verification record.
  • Share certification scope, validity period and applicable scheme accurately.
  • Feature your organisation's profile within Certified Workplaces and, where applicable, WWEC Workplace Journeys.

The rules behind the mark

Recognition with controls, not a free-standing badge.

Approved use of the WWEC Certification Mark comes with clear rules, so that certification stays meaningful for every organisation that holds it.

Approved use
  • Display the approved WWEC Certification Mark on your website, careers page and offices.
  • Reference certification in employer branding, recruitment and investor materials.
  • Point candidates, employees and partners to a live verification record.
  • Share certification scope, validity period and applicable scheme accurately.
  • Feature your organisation's profile within Certified Workplaces and, where applicable, WWEC Workplace Journeys.
Conditions that apply
  • The mark may only be used for the certified scope, sites or entities stated on the certificate.
  • Use is limited to the certification validity period and must stop or be updated on expiry, suspension or withdrawal.
  • The mark must not be altered, resized disproportionately or combined with other logos in a way that implies co-branding.
  • Marketing claims must reflect the certification scheme name and scope accurately — certification does not certify unrelated claims.
  • Every use should be traceable to a live verification record via a unique verification ID.

Employer branding

A mark that stays credible because it stays governed.

Every public claim links back to a live verification record, so candidates, clients and employees can confirm it in seconds.

Employer branding support does not influence assessment, scoring or certification decisions and cannot be used to obtain or guarantee certification. Recognition and branding entitlements follow a certification decision. Purchasing a package or branding support does not guarantee certification and does not influence assessment findings, scoring or certification decisions.
