  • HR Practices

In a fast-moving and increasingly complex global economy, our success depends on how faithfully we adhere to our core principles: delivering exceptional client service; acting with integrity and responsibility; and supporting the growth of our employees.

For companies that hope to secure the most in-demand talent, it’s not enough to offer basic perks. A company needs to establish its branding to both its customers and employees.

Such organizations acquire a Best Places to Work certification in order to attract the most qualified candidates. This certification can be achieved in just over a month through an HR assessment, employee survey, and topped off with an analysis and validation process.

Brian Hood, Philippine Head of Human Resources for JPMorgan Chase Philippine Global Service Center (GSC)—which was recently named a Best Place to Work discusses how JPMorgan brings people together to create a strong corporate culture. 

The company awarding winning culture

We invest in our own people and provide them with the necessary tools, resources, and work environment to grow personally and professionally. 

Furthermore, we believe in a culture of respect, equity and inclusion. Across our global operations, we remain focused on cultivating a diverse and inclusive work environment for our employees and our business. From constantly reassessing our recruiting and training practices, to engaging our employees to get involved in initiatives that would support and create awareness for underserved and under-represented communities.

We are devoted to creating a great team and winning culture while building and maintaining our reputation as the best and most respected financial services company in the world -- one that our employees, stakeholders and communities can be proud of.

How Zoetis positive workplace culture is guided by its core beliefs

  • Benefits
  • Culture

Zoetis is a global animal health company dedicated to supporting its customers and their businesses in ever better ways. Building on 60 years of experience, we deliver quality medicines and vaccines, support and education. We are working every day to better understand and address the real-world challenges faced by those who raise and care for animals in ways they find truly relevant.

How would you describe your company to someone outside of your industry ?

Zoetis is the world’s leading animal health company that is driven by a singular purpose – to nurture our world and humankind by advancing care for animals. As proud colleagues of Zoetis, we try to embody this purpose in the work that we do everyday as we engage our customers in the Companion Animal business as well as the Livestock industry in various people and animal welfare initiatives. Zoetis is the global market leader because of its outstanding portfolio of products and services that allows our customers  to predict, prevent, detect, and treat animal diseases in a continuum of care that other companies are not able to provide as comprehensively as Zoetis does.

How did you build a positive workplace culture ?

It starts with the belief that the company can only be as good as its people. It is therefore imperative to foster a workplace climate where people actually look forward to going to work every day, where they are motivated to always give their best for their customers and colleagues, and where they know that their management team is working for their success, growth, and well-being.

Beyond work, the company also organizes activities that appeal to colleagues’ social responsibility interests. We have adopted the Binayoyo community in Rizal province, where colleagues contributed to setting up a clean water system and have engaged those families in livelihood programs. As a company, we also believe in having fun together. Thus our regular activities such as TGIF virtual sessions, friendly competitions (e.g. Virtual Race, Biggest Lozer), and simply finding time to bond whenever possible are some examples of our colleague well-being priorities.

I must acknowledge that maintaining a positive work climate often becomes challenging amidst serious business challenges such as the COVID-19 pandemic and the African Swine Fever outbreak. In these situations, the leadership team takes the active role of directly engaging colleagues in the company’s unwavering commitment to supporting them through these difficult periods.

This recognition is particularly important and gratifying to all of us in Zoetis, given the extraordinary environmental and business challenges we are facing. The feedback received helps us celebrate the areas that we are excelling in while also allowing us to focus on our key areas for improvement. We will continue to invest in our people, sustaining our drive to build a high-performing team that embodies Zoetis’ Core Beliefs while thriving in a culture of diversity, equity, and inclusivity

From a leadership perspective, what lessons did you learn from this difficult time ?

In times of extreme challenges, people and their values will be tested. One specific example for us was our ability to balance colleague safety and well-being versus the need to remain productive and deliver on our business obligations. But given Zoetis’ commitment to people, there was never a question on our primary responsibility of keeping safe our colleagues, their families, and ultimately our customers. We ensured everyone was safe, felt safe, and felt supported throughout the pandemic.Upon learning of the huge cost of hospitalization due to COVID-19, we immediately doubled the hospitalization benefit of all colleagues for their peace-of-mind. During the lockdowns, we kept everyone engaged through regular learning and fun programs. And when allowed, we provided colleagues with all the tools and guidance necessary to keep them safe when meeting customers outside. Everyone responded by doing their best to deliver on the company’s objectives.

The company positive culture

We at Zoetis are proud of our positive company culture and the meaningful role we all play in caring for animals both directly and indirectly. When it comes to our culture, our Core Beliefs are the foundation of the commitments we make to our colleagues, customers and stakeholders every day. They have helped us create an award-winning workplace and become a leading partner of choice in animal health.

We work hard to cultivate an environment where our colleagues can give their best every day and feel supported and empowered to manage their work/life balance whilst continuing to deliver outstanding results for the business. We believe these results come best in an open, diverse and inclusive environment; hence, we strive to build a highly collaborative and well-aligned organization that is fully engaged and understands the strategic objectives and direction.

Continuing learning opportunities offered by the organization

Zoetis beliefs that our colleagues own and drive their learning journeys at Zoetis, our managers support this through strong focus on IDPs, HR and L&D enable the growth of our colleagues in Zoetis. We are strong proponents of experiential learning and hands-on development.

Whether it’s on-the-job experiences, stretched assignments, business relevant projects or learning through mentors, we work towards actively creating a range of opportunities to learn from each other and develop our next generation of leaders.

We have developed a cluster-wide networking and learning community where colleagues have various opportunities to go beyond the bounds of their own role and country to develop themselves through best practices of other countries and bringing these to their own roles.

We also offer various development programmes such as the Senior Emerging Leaders programme, Leaders’ League forums to focus on building future competencies amongst senior managers and leaders and strengthen our leadership bench within the organization.

Some initiatives adopted by the organization during the COVID-19 pandemic to engage the employees

With prolonged lockdown conditions, work from home and limited face to face interaction, Zoetis has applied three main principles globally and it is no different in Thailand. We are committed first and foremost to ensure that:

  • Our colleagues are being safe, Feeling Safe And feeling supported
  • The leadership team has closely monitored the COVID-19 situation and the likely impact on our colleague wellbeing and operations. We have adopted a very agile approach in making necessary adjustments to our daily operations and empowered our colleagues to deliver their commitments with a “safety first” mindset. We have relied on virtual communication tools enabling us to overcome pandemic restrictions and continue to be connected with our customers.
  • This year, we launched our Colleague Well-being strategy focusing and prioritizing individual wellness on four fronts – mental, physical, social and financial wellbeing, raising awareness and bringing meaningful initiatives that will engage and support our colleagues.
  • A dedicated colleague team named ZEED (Zoetis Energetic Engaging Drive) regularly organizes several activities, such as fitness challenges, mindfulness workshops etc. for our colleagues. The wellbeing strategy has very well engaged the colleagues to develop the healthy Work-From-Home practices, support mind and body wellness as well as encourage sustainability actions at during the lockdown restrictions confining us to our homes.
  • Another critical engagement factor during pandemic has been the consistent and frequent communication with our colleagues to share company directions, performance and overall results, virtually recognizing the great work being done by our colleagues and opening up virtual avenues for colleagues to share their challenges of working from home. This has helped us to remain close to the issues affecting our teams and provide necessary and timely support.
