The Kincentric Best Employers programme follows a comprehensive process to identify organisations that excel in employee engagement and overall HR practices. This year, the programme assessed three key areas - Employee Engagement Survey, People Practice Index, and CEO Perspective - to determine the Best Employers in Thailand.
Olam Agri was one of the 16 companies selected for the Best Employer Award 2023 in Thailand. Assessment results identified the company excelled in several areas, including a welcoming and positive company culture, supportive supervisors, focus on sustainability, and a company-wide commitment to inclusion and diversity.
One key factor that contributed to Olam Agri's success in winning this award is its unwavering dedication to sustainability. The company has integrated sustainability into its operations, with a strong emphasis on traceability and achieving a net-zero impact. This commitment to sustainability greatly impressed the judges and resulted in high scores on the People Practice Index.
Furthermore, Olam Agri has also performed well in terms of comprehensive work support, skills training, and career development for its employees. This is reflected in the company's lower-than-market turnover rate and its agility in investing in new ideas and attracting top talent. Kincentric assessment also revealed that the company is committed to providing a positive work environment characterised by equality, collaboration, and inclusion. Regular check-ups with employees to listen to their thoughts and ideas further underscore the importance of open communication within the multinational workforce at Olam Agri.
Kincentric Best Employers is based on data compiled through employee opinion surveys. It recognises top organisations for high rates of employee engagement, business agility, engaging leadership, and talent focus.
