Pimonrat Reephattanavijitkul, the Chief Human Resources Officer at CP Foods, remarked that the company focuses on enhancing employee capacity by nurturing knowledge and skills relevant to the business's demands. This accolade highlights CP Foods as an exemplary large organization, demonstrating best practices in human capital management, learning and training programs, and knowledge management. Such commitment ensures the efficiency and capability of employees, contributing to the company's sustainable growth and its position as a leader in the food industry. This aligns with its vision of being the "Kitchen of the World."
CP Foods actively encourages innovation and efficiency enhancement, along with establishing a solid foundation through "lifelong education" for its global employees. The company aims to provide over "3,000,000 hours" of training by 2030, utilizing a range of new learning platforms and innovative knowledge management approaches.
The company also encourages its business units to establish their own "Technical Academy in Action Programs" to standardize the development of knowledge and skills. These programs are designed to match each professional expertise, building new skills that align with business goals and readiness for sustainable growth. CP Foods fosters continuous learning, prioritizing new knowledge management prototypes through the "Im-Ru" system, which promotes on-demand learning accessible anytime and anywhere. This approach is in sync with the learning behaviors of the new generation. The company also aims to extend the knowledge to farmers, business partners, and stakeholders as well.
CPF recently launched the "CPF KM Excellence Awards 2023," where a project from the Swine Academic Service Unit was awarded the top prize. This was achieved by effectively disseminating knowledge on disease prevention practices in pig farms across various units and farmers through an application. This initiative significantly enhanced the biosecurity system, effectively safeguarding the farms of both the company and its partners from a variety of animal diseases. This program's success has now been extended to pig farmers across the country.
"Developing the capabilities of personnel is beneficial for both the individuals and the organization. Moreover, it is beneficial for society and the nation, as it nurtures high-quality, 'good and talented' professionals with leadership attributes for the food industry. This is in line with the CP Group's philosophy of the "3 Benefits," focusing on the welfare of the nation, the people, and the organization," Miss Pimonrat explained.
