With the theme “The Definitive Z Choice – Embracing the New Era with GenZ,” this year’s Asia Human Resources Award aims to expand opportunities and address the challenges of the GenZ labor market – the future backbone of the workforce.
As a result, new standards for creativity and diversity in training, human resource management, and building a suitable working environment are emphasized to evaluate and find outstanding enterprises in this field. The award for “Best Workplace in Asia 2024” affirmed the position and continuous efforts of Ajinomoto Vietnam in creating a desirable working environment for laborers, including young workers.
Understanding the constant transition and the growing expectations of an increasingly young labor market, Ajinomoto Vietnam has always focused on building positive policies and activities and accompanying laborers in developing their professional capacity to create more values for society together. Many training and education programs on nutrition, environment, digital technology, etcetera, have been annually implemented by the company to equip employees with solid knowledge and skills.
At the same time, the company also orients a clear career development path, bringing many new opportunities and challenges for each individual to improve themselves.
In addition, at Ajinomoto Vietnam, the elements of Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DE&I) are ensured throughout the working environments. With a desire to diversify experiences and continuously integrate and develop, the company always creates conditions for employees to promote their experience, encourage learning, and experience in many fields to create a dynamic and resilient enterprise. All new perspectives and viewpoints are always welcomed and not limited by gender, age, or nationality.
Besides professional factors, Ajinomoto Vietnam also promotes the values of health and happiness of laborers. The company understands that, with the advent of the GenZ era, physical and mental health has become a top concern for many individuals and businesses.
Therefore, Ajinomoto actively deploys many training programs to improve knowledge about health and nutrition, provide Healthy Meals in the workplace, establish “Nutrition Software” and “Health for Nutrition Counseling,” and build menus based on employees’ health status.
Since May 2024, Ajinomoto Vietnam has also officially launched a 5-minute workplace exercise program for all employees. This activity is coordinated and advised by experts in physical education to design exercises suitable for each group of jobs, helping laborers reduce fatigue and drowsiness, maintain a refreshed state throughout the working process, support fall prevention, and improve work efficiency.
In the future, the company will also deploy psychological counseling activities for employees, including issues in both work and life, to help relieve pressure and boost morale for laborers.
In today’s innovative labor market, Ajinomoto Vietnam believes that to create sustainable values, enterprises cannot lack the companionship and common ideals of all laborers. Since April 2023, Ajinomoto has announced its Purpose of Existence as “Contributing to the health and happiness of Vietnamese people and society by providing quality products and valuable initiatives.” This is the core value that the company always aims for and seeks resonance in each laborer.
For that reason, Ajinomoto always cares about and organizes communication activities to raise employees’ empathy with the company’s Purpose of Existence, helping employees find the intersection between their personal and the company’s Purpose of Existence, thereby creating more values for society together.
