Olam has been recognised for its strong workplace culture and employee engagement, with Olam Vietnam Limited (“Olam Vietnam”) and PT

Olam Vietnam was selected by the human resource publication in its inaugural list of Best Companies to Work for in Asia 2018 Awards – Vietnam Edition. This was Olam’s second time on the list this year – having received the same accolade for Olam Indonesia in the Indonesia edition of the award in May 2018.
This year, 3730 employees from 131 companies across Vietnam, and 7,320 employees from 210 companies across Indonesia, participated in the assessment survey for the awards, which was evaluated by an independent panel of judges- comprising industry experts, academics, journalists and government representatives. The accolade was accorded to those companies that best demonstrated strong employee engagement and excellent
workplace culture.
Prakash Jhanwer, President of Southeast Asia and China, Olam International, said, “We are delighted and honoured to receive these awards for both our Vietnam and
Indonesia operations. Our people are our most important asset and we are committed to fostering an environment for employees to thrive. We will continue to strive to be an employer of choice in these regions and globally.”
