People and Values
RARE Holdings' goal is to attract and retain, at every level of the company, people who represent the highest standards of excellence and integrity.
The company is dedicated to diversity, fair treatment, mutual respect, and trust and fosters an environment that encourages innovation, creativity, and results through teamwork.
Its management practices leadership that teaches, inspires, and promotes full participation and career development and encourages open and effective communication and interaction.
Staff have a strong sense of “buy in” to the company’s vision, mission and goals and therefore demand of themselves and of each other the highest standards of individual and corporate integrity and comply with all company policies and laws.
RARE Holdings honours the commitments it makes, and all levels of decision makers take personal responsibility for all actions and results, creating an operating discipline of continuous improvement that is an integral part of the RARE culture.
Governance
RARE Holdings is totally committed to the principles of good Corporate Governance. It embraces the adoption and monitoring of effective systems of internal control, the assessment and management of business risks and the definition and implementation of appropriate business procedures. Corporate governance within RARE Holdings is managed by the Board of Directors and the various subcommittees of the Board, including Risk, Remuneration and Ethics Committees.
Community
RARE Holdings acknowledges its social responsibility towards the communities in which it operates and deserving institutions at large. Our programmes focus mostly on support and contributions towards training.
Environment
The company is conscious of the fact that in carrying out its activities there is a potential risk of environmental damage. An effort has therefore been made to educate all our employees to avoid practices which could cause long-term damage to the environment or cause atmospheric pollution through the inappropriate use of plant and equipment. Because of the importance of this issue, environmental issues remain one of RARE Holdings' focus areas.
Broadbased Black Economic Empowerment (BBBEE)
RARE Holdings is an equal opportunity employer and there is no discrimination on the basis of ethnic origin or gender or in any other manner. A number of programmes are in place to ensure that the Group's employee profile will become more representative of the demographics of the regions in which it operates whilst maintaining the Group's high standards.
Ethics
RARE Holdings endeavours to act with honesty, responsibility, and professional integrity in its dealings with employees, shareholders, customers, suppliers, and society at large. In any instance where ethical standards are called into question, the circumstances are investigated and resolved in an appropriate and fair manner. |
