JTI (Japan Tobacco International) has been once again certified as Top Employer in Armenia, Europe and Asia Pacific regions for its outstanding employee offerings. Independent research by the Top Employers Institute demonstrates that the company looks after its people exceptionally well. JTI has achieved the #1 Top Employer award in Armenia, Europe and Asia Pacific regions, showcasing its dedication to the development of its employees.

The annual international research undertaken by the Top Employers Institute recognises leading employers around the world: those that provide excellent employee conditions, nurture and develop talent throughout all levels of the organisation, and which strive to continuously optimise employment practices. JTI is one of the selected companies to achieve the exclusive Top Employers award in Armenia, Europe and Asia Pacific 2018 certification.

Crucial to the Top Employers process is that participating companies must meet the required high standard in the research in order to achieve the certification. Only organisations that achieve certification in at least four countries within the region deserve the special Top Employers Europe and Asia Pacific 2018 recognition. The independent research has verified their outstanding employee conditions in all certified countries. This earned JTI a coveted spot among a choice group of certified Top Employers.

•    Talent Strategy          
•    Workforce Planning
•    On-boarding
•    Learning & Development
•    Performance Management
•    Leadership Development
