Commenting on the certification, the executive director of human resources and corporate affairs, Abey Kgotle, said, “Retaining the top employer industry leader status for the third consecutive year is testament of our dedication towards making Mercedes-Benz South Africa a great company to work for. We are here, six years later since our initial certification because of our exceptional employee offerings.

The institute certifies organisations based on the participation and results of their HR best practices survey that covers six HR domains consisting of 20 topics such as people strategy, work environment, talent acquisition, learning, well-being and diversity and inclusion and more. The survey evaluates the degree to which the topics are supported and implemented through strategic focus, integration of managers and use of technology in the individual companies. Billy Elliott, the Top Employers Institute’s regional manager: Africa stated, “Congratulations to Mercedes-Benz South Africa for achieving their sixth consecutive top employer certification for 2022. They have been recognised as one of the top 20 highest scoring companies (tied for 12th) and the automotive industry sector leader for the third year in a row. Mercedes-Benz continuously works hard to advance its people strategy underpinned by world-class HR practices. Through the top employers’ certification programme, Mercedes-Benz has credibly proved to play a pivotal role in making the world of work a better place for their employees.” Source: MotorPress
