ISUZU Motors South Africa (ISUZU) is proud to be recognised as a 2024 Top Employer in South Africa by the internationally recognised Top Employers Institute for the second year in a row.
The Top Employers Institute is a global authority on recognising people practices. It certifies organisations based on the participation, validation, and audit of the Human Resources Best Practices Survey.
The certification as Top Employer 2024 recognises ISUZU's efforts in promoting the best people practices and creating an inclusive world of work for all its employees.
"As a people-centred organisation, we take pride in championing a work environment that ensures employees excel in what they do and are able to grow within the business. We recognise the success of our business is largely dependent on how we treat our people. For this reason, our people strategy, which is informed by our business strategy, encourages us to drive a high-performance culture and to respond to the evolving needs of our workforce which include championing Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging (DEIB) initiatives" says ISUZU Senior Vice President Human Capital and Corporate Affairs, Mongezi Hermans.
The Top Employer Survey is independently audited and covers six Human Resources domains which focus on key themes which include, Steering, Shaping, Attracting, Developing, Engaging, and Uniting employees. The work environment, learning, diversity and inclusion, and employee well-being also form part of the many topics evaluated within these themes.
"We are extremely proud to be recognised as a Top Employer for the second year running. In 2023, we continued to be deliberate in how we bring talent into the organisation and on how we accelerate their development. We aim to continue to largely focus on nurturing the youth as the future workforce while increasing our efforts to transform our organisation beyond compliance," Hermans adds.
Top Employers Institute CEO David Plink says: "Exceptional times bring out the best in people and organisations. And we have witnessed this in our Top Employers Certification Programme this year: exceptional performance from the certified Top Employers 2024. These employers have always shown that they care for the development and well-being of their people. By doing so, they collectively enrich the world of work. We are proud to announce and celebrate this year's group of leading people-oriented employers: the Top Employers 2024." The programme has certified and recognised over 2 300 Top Employers in 121 countries/regions across five continents.
