Telecel Ghana has been recognised as a Top Employer in Ghana for the 7th consecutive year, a major achievement that demonstrates the company’s commitment to creating a world-class workplace and promoting excellence in its Human Resource (HR) policies and practices.
The recognition also comes almost a year after the telecommunications giant completed its rebranding to Telecel.
“We are delighted to be recognised as a Top Employer in Ghana. This award validates the hard work and dedication of our team, and it reflects our ongoing commitment to encouraging an inclusive, innovative, and supportive work environment. We’ve worked tirelessly to ensure that Telecel Ghana is not only a leader in digital connectivity but also a leader in talent development and employee wellbeing,” said Ing. Patricia Obo-Nai, chief executive of Telecel Ghana.
Being certified as a Top Employer reflects Telecel Ghana’s dedication to building a better world of work through exceptional people strategies, inclusive practices, and innovative talent development.
The Top Employers Institute evaluates organisations through a rigorous HR Best Practices Survey, covering key areas such as People Strategy, Work Environment, Talent Acquisition, Learning, Diversity, Equity & Inclusion and Wellbeing, among others.
David Plink, CEO of Top Employers Institute, said “This year, the Top Employers Certification Programme highlights the dedication of Top Employers as they continue to set the standard by consistently delivering world-class HR strategies and practices. We are proud to celebrate these people-first leaders and teams as Top Employers for 2025.”
Over the past year, the telco has focused on improving its internal culture, focusing on employee development, diversity, and inclusion.
“Our aim is to build a workplace that nurtures talent, promotes continuous learning, and empowers our employees to contribute to both their personal growth and the company’s mission of connecting Ghana and Africa. This recognition reaffirms that we’re on the right path,” said Hussein Rifai, Head of Centre of Excellence (CoE) at Telecel Group.
With over 2,400 organisations certified across 125 countries and regions, the Top Employers programme has become the global standard for recognising excellence in people practices. This year, Top Employers Institute certified companies that positively impact the lives of over 13 million employees globally, with Telecel Ghana standing as a proud member of this esteemed group.
