Tsebo Solutions Group is honoured to announce its recognition as a Top Employer in Africa, marking the first time the organisation has achieved this prestigious continental certification. This milestone includes expanding its certification to Kenya, Zimbabwe, and Zambia, alongside maintaining its certification in South Africa for the third consecutive year. Additionally, Tsebo ranked 14th out of 154 participants in South Africa, highlighting its unwavering commitment to creating thriving workplaces and fostering a high-performance culture.
As one of Africa’s largest employers, Tsebo’s dual achievement reflects its dedication to empowering employees and building a better world of work across the continent. The organisation achieved an overall score of 94.65%, surpassing the global benchmark by 10% and showing significant improvement across all HR domains evaluated by the Top Employers Institute.
“This is a landmark moment for Tsebo,” said Tim Walters, Tsebo Group CEO. “We are extremely proud of achieving our commitment to improving our 2024 results. Expanding our Top Employer certification across Africa and being recognised as one of South Africa’s top 15 employers underscores our dedication to creating thriving environments for our people. Our employees are the heart of our business, and we remain committed to investing in their growth, well-being, and safety to ensure sustainable success.”
Elanie Kruger, Tsebo’s Group Chief Human Resources Officer, added: “Being recognised among the top 15 employers in South Africa while expanding our certification to Kenya, Zimbabwe, and Zambia reflects our consistent efforts to improve our employees’ experience of the workplace through HR best practices. These achievements demonstrate our focus on innovation, digitisation, empowerment, and sustainability, ensuring that our people and, subsequently, our clients are supported and inspired every step of the way.”
The Top Employers Certification Programme evaluates organisations through a rigorous HR Best Practices Survey, covering six domains and 20 topics, including People Strategy, Talent Acquisition, Learning and Development, Diversity and Inclusion, and Well-being. Tsebo underwent a thorough independent audit to validate its outstanding HR practices and policies.
Top Employers Institute CEO David Plink says: “Consistency in a not-so-consistent world? In a time of rapid change—where technological, economic, and social factors continually reshape our world—these extraordinary times bring out the best in people and organisations. This year’s Top Employers Certification Programme showcases the resilience of the certified Top Employers 2025, who consistently prioritise the growth and well-being of their people as they enrich the world of work. We are proud to celebrate these people-first leaders and teams as the Top Employers for 2025!”
