Cape Town - The Coca-Cola Peninsula Beverages (CCPB) has once again been recognised as a top employer for 2022 by the Top Employers Institute Africa for the 21th year in a row.
CCPB was acknowledged for its exceptional human resources and people management practices among 24 organisations from 31 African countries.
Certifications were based on companies’ approach to people strategy, work environment, talent acquisition, learning, well-being, diversity and inclusion.
CCPB’s People and Development director, Bryn Morse has the philosophy that companies thrive in empowering their employees.
