BRITISH American Tobacco Malaysia Bhd (BAT Malaysia) has been recognised as Malaysia’s top employer for the fifth consecutive year by the Top Employers Institute. BAT Malaysia also received the award for Top Employer in the Asia Pacific and Global categories.
The Top Employers Institute programme certify organisations based on the participation and results of their human resource (HR) Best Practices Survey. This survey covers six HR domains consisting of 20 topics such as People Strategy, Work Environment, Talent Acquisition, Learning, Well-being and Diversity & Inclusion.
BAT Malaysia was one of only 11 Top Employers recognised worldwide by Top Employers Institute this year.
The award reinforces BAT Malaysia’s commitment to developing a future-fit workforce in line with its purpose to build A Better Tomorrow.
“At BAT Malaysia, our ethos of being bold, fast, empowered, responsible and diverse is our guiding light. Being chosen as a top employer is a testament to the efficacy of our ethos. It also validates the effort we put into creating a purposeful, inspiring place for our people to work in,” BAT Malaysia’s human resources and inclusion director Felicia Teh pointed out.
“In our commitment to building a world-class and efficient organisation, we will continue to provide meaningful career opportunities for our people and accelerate new capabilities to support our purpose of A Better Tomorrow.”
Top Employers Institute CEO David Plink said the Top Employers Institute’s global Top Employers have continued to prioritise going above and beyond to maintain their excellent people practices in the workplace despite the past two years having been demanding to employers with the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic.
“As a global Top Employer, BAT Malaysia has proven their unwavering commitment to their employees,” he noted.
“They join a small group of companies that have achieved a global certification through the Top Employers Programme. We are excited to celebrate and applaud them for their achievement in 2022.”
A global authority in recognising excellence in People Practices, the Top Employers Institute has today certified 1,691organisations in 120 countries/regions. These certified Top Employers positively impact the lives of over 7 million employees. – Jan 24, 2022
