KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, Jan. 18, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- 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. For Malaysia, it is the sixth consecutive year of recognition. The 2024 certification reflects the impact of the comprehensive learning and development opportunities at Boehringer Ingelheim.

Boehringer Ingelheim received particularly high scores in the categories "Develop" and "Steer", outlining the link between individual development and the company's purpose of transforming lives for generations.

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. 

"Nurturing talent and instilling a growth mindset is the core of our company strategy. The Top Employer certification reflects how we empower our people to champion their own learning and development which is closely aligned to their career growth plans," said Satveer Bhatt, Head of Human Resources, Boehringer Ingelheim (Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia).

Boehringer Ingelheim's employer offerings stand out in its holistic employee wellbeing framework that integrates concepts of physical, social, mental and financial health.
