Smollan India has been officially recognised by the Top Employers Institute as a Top Employer 2020. The Top Employers Institute is focused on accelerating the impact of people strategies to enrich the work place.
“Top Employers Institute wants to help institutions that help work places get the best out of their people to ensure that their people are the best they can be,” says David Plink, the CEO of the Top Employers Institute. “We believe that people make the organisation. The certified participants are a shining example of a dedication to people practices as they continuously commit to empowering their employees for a better world of work. Congratulations!”
Smollan started operations in the Indian Subcontinent in 2008 through a joint venture with Hindustan Unilever Limited. The Top Employer award matters to us because our people are our largest investment and our greatest asset. It is a recognition of our commitment to growing and developing our people and offering meaningful employment. We promote excellence and collaboration in building a business that deserves to last; recognising the extraordinary effort, commitment and contribution of our employees, suppliers and partners to think, act and deliver in a manner that is pioneering, responsible and most of all sustainable to our communities and environment.
“This is a fantastic achievement for Smollan India. We talk all the time about how people are at the heart of our purpose, so seeing our people power our business in this way, is what it’s all about,” said Ridwaan Bedderson. “Being a Top Employer means that we have a promise to keep. A promise to always do our best for our people and in turn for our clients and the industry.”
