A company is a reflection of its people; human capital in recent years is believed to be a key business success factor. Limited researches in Malaysia on valuing human capital and its contribution motivate the study to be conducted. The case study method is used, with two Malaysian companies awarded as the Best Employers in recent years. The study proved that by having committed people in the companies and by responding to employee needs, it is a sign that companies are concerned with their personal and career life. Indirectly instill motivation among employees to drive towards business success together.
