Creating a safe, diverse, and empowering working environment for all our team members to thrive in the long term.

 

At PPF, we believe that our success is driven by the well-being and empowerment of our colleagues.

 

Our commitment ensures that every employee can thrive, feel valued, and contribute meaningfully to our purpose. 

Engaged, Diverse & Inclusive Workplace

Creating a working environment that attracts, engages and retains diverse talent by empowering our colleagues to feel motivated, respected, appreciated, and accepted.

 

We understand that diversity is not just about numbers, but about creating a culture where everyone feels accepted. To achieve this, we are committed to implementing practices that support diversity and inclusion at every level of our organisation as well as ensuring that our employees can be themselves in the workplace, free from bias or discrimination.

 

Increasing employee engagement is important to us and we believe that when our employees are engaged and empowered, they bring their most authentic selves to work, fostering innovation, collaboration, and a shared commitment to our goals.

Spreading Safety Culture

As part of our commitment to the PETS strategy, PPF strives to embed a safety culture across all our operations. Recognising the importance of health and safety in our workplace and daily lives, in 2023, to further engage our team members and their families in our safety mission, we organised a safety drawing contest, which proved to be a remarkable success.

 

The contest was open to all PPF employees and their children - we were thrilled to receive an impressive 135 drawings from the kids. This not only highlighted the importance of health and safety but also fostered a shared responsibility among our employees and their families.

 

The photos of the children in safety equipment and their drawings are now being used to create campaign posters, further promoting safety awareness within our organisation, and serving as a reminder of the vital importance of health and safety practices.
