British American Tobacco
The company was founded in 1902. It has market-leading brands, a successful strategy,
talented employees, and a goal to build a better tomorrow, which is why it is still going
strong today. They are a well-known company on the FTSE 100 index. United States of
America; the Americas and Sub-Saharan Africa; Europe and North Africa; Asia-Pacific and
the Middle East are just some of the places where people live. They spread across six
continents: There are more than 55,000 BAT people in the world. They have had to change
how and where they work since 2020. Many of them are in offices, factories and R&D
centers. But a lot of them also go out to help tobacco farmers and retailers who sell their
products; both important partners who have always played a big part in their success. The
company's priorities are to promote high performance, develop the next generation of leaders,
value the diversity of our employees, encourage and reward entrepreneurial behavior, and
foster an engaging culture conducive to individual and team success. The BAT Ethos, which
defines their culture and how they accomplish the company's goals, embodies how people
operate. The Group's culture promotes internal talent development by challenging and
supporting the high-performing managers who will execute the strategy. When businesses

recruit externally, they look for individuals who can add fresh skills and capabilities to their
teams, thereby strengthening the business. The organization is enhancing its internal
capabilities for engaging and attracting individuals that will enable it to compete in growth
markets and categories, including low-risk items. On social media platforms such as
LinkedIn, Facebook, and Instagram, the employer brand – 'Bring your Difference' – is well-
established. They have exceeded several significant FMCG companies in terms of social
media engagement. Additionally, it is vital to maintain a secure work environment, protect
employees' well-being, and listen to employees' viewpoints. In summary, the organization
seeks a challenging and supportive culture that values individual responsibility and
accountability and attracts, engages, and retains the most talented and diverse personnel.
Recruitment of British American Tobacco
Prospective employee recruitment and selection continue to be a significant strategic part of
human resource management. Recruitment is defined as the process of locating and acquiring
competent job candidates in sufficient quantity and quality to enable a business to choose the
most qualified persons to fill open jobs. The process of selection entails collecting data,
evaluating candidates, and deciding who should be hired for specific tasks. The Human
Resources Department at British American Tobacco has developed over the course of the
company's history. Indeed, British American Tobacco was one of the first firm to understand
the value of human resources and initiate the process. The company's primary relationships
and influences are with the employees of its core operations. The purpose of these Principles
is to assist the organization in developing goals that are appropriate for its current position
within its sphere of influence. They do, however, understand their own impact on supply
network partners – and the responsibility to engage in dialogue with those in their area of
influence. When confronted with such wide and complex employment-related challenges,
various elements of society share responsibility. National governments are primarily
responsible for improving local labor standards through legislation, regulations, and
compliance. Employees' sense of belonging and trust in British American Tobacco is
bolstered by a significant emphasis on internal communications, a sense of brand pride, and
membership in a socially responsible Group of Companies. BAT aspires to be open and
transparent, and to provide timely, accurate, and useful company and industry information to
all employees via a number of internal communication channels. Contractual responsibilities
and other competitive considerations are factored into disclosure/communication policies.
