AstraZeneca Thailand wins Top Employer Award 2023 for the third year in a row,reaffirming its position as a great place to work

Over the years, AstraZeneca Thailand values Inclusion and Diversity (I&D) by creating an inclusive and equitable environment where people belong and Speak Up culture. Inclusion and Diversity are fundamental to the success of our company because innovation requires breakthrough ideas that only come from a diverse workforce empowered to challenge conventional thinking.

AstraZeneca Thailand constantly implements policies and fosters gender equality to have equal opportunities for advancement within the company. We encourage employees to fully manage their work responsibilities and family roles through Work Anywhere, a flexible workplace policy. "Paternity Leave Pledge 2022" has been signed to support 30 days of paid paternity leave within the first year of parenthood. We hope that this gives all family members the best start to parenting. AstraZeneca also strives to promote gender diversity in the organisation by establishing AZPride, a network of employees worldwide dedicated to empowering LGBTQIA+ people to reach their full potential.

This reflects the excellence of our HR policies in employee development and inclusive and equitable environment where people belong.

In addition, the company urges employees to realise and create enduring value for patients and society from disease awareness, early diagnostics, improving the access and availability of innovative medicines alongside ensuring that we contribute to a sustainable environment through the 'Making Health Happen' campaign. We push the boundaries of science and provide more sustainable healthcare and well-being for people, society, and the planet."
