Boehringer Ingelheim has been awarded “Global Top Employer” for the fourth year in a row, and one of the 17 globally certified companies by the Top Employers Institute. This recognition has extended across the ASEAN, South Korea, Australia, and New Zealand (ASKAN) region. The 2024 certification reflects the impact of the organization’s comprehensive learning and development opportunities.
Boehringer Ingelheim received particularly high scores in the categories “Develop” and “Steer”, highlighting a link between individual development and the company’s purpose of transforming lives for generations.
One example of Boehringer Ingelheim’s commitment to people development is the Boehringer Ingelheim University. Launched in October 2023, it is an internal state-of-the-art virtual campus where learning content is accessible to all 53,000 employees worldwide. This provides employees with content based on their areas of interest and skills needed in the future.
“Learning and development is a key component for our company as we are powered by our people. This year’s Global Top Employer certification reflects how we empower our employees to be the architects of their own careers, which combined with their passion, can create an impact on millions of lives,” said Rori Fox, HR Director, ASKAN, Boehringer Ingelheim.
Boehringer Ingelheim also runs a regional Leadership Development Program, where participants from different business and functional units are selected through a rigorous nomination process to undergo practical and experience-based learning. The program is in its eighth year and has produced over 80 alumni who have continued their leadership journeys with the organization.
“We understand that our people are vital to our commitment to improve the health of humans and animals in the Philippines. As such, it is crucial we future-proof our employees with the right skills and career development opportunities while ensuring that their contributions are celebrated,” says Clare Burrows, General Manager and Head of Human Pharma, Boehringer Ingelheim (Philippines). “In the Philippines, Boehringer Ingelheim has won the award for six consecutive years. Our recurring Top Employer recognition is a testament to our unwavering commitment to our people.”
Boehringer Ingelheim has been listed among the Top Employers globally for the past ten years. This year, it is one of only 17 Top Employers worldwide and will receive the award in 30 countries. Its regional certifications grew to four awards. The regional recognitions as top employers in Europe, Asia Pacific, and Latin America will be complemented with an additional award in the Middle East.
