JBS Bringing In Brazilian Workers to ‘Disseminate Company Culture’

Statement on LinkedIn – Gilberto Tomazoni, Global CEO of JBS, 29 June 2023

— untitled —

Through JBS Sem Fronteiras, we are going to take 1,500 Brazilians to work in our operations in Australia. The program is a valuable asset for JBS, as it helps to disseminate the company’s culture in our various businesses abroad, in addition to promoting a healthy exchange of knowledge and experiences among our employees.

In addition, I am sure that this experience will also be enriching for all selected. This will allow them to expand their horizons, experience new cultures and develop new skills and knowledge.

To spread ‘JBS culture’ in Australia, company will take 1,500 Brazilians

Article – After 15 years working in Australia through a series of acquisitions of local companies, JBS has decided to bring to the country its JBS Without Borders program, which for ten years has been selecting employees from Brazil to work abroad and today has almost 70 employees in Canada and the United States. The new edition of the program, aimed for the first time at the nation of Oceania, brings a significantly greater offer of 1,500 vacancies in the productive and administrative areas of JBS Australia units.

The expansion was possible thanks to the support of the J&F Institute, which will make it possible to qualify “on a large scale” the employees. “This created the conditions for the company to expand JBS Sem Fronteiras,” the company says.

Behind the initiative is the need for the global giant to maintain its culture in the various markets it has entered through the purchase of national companies, as well as to ensure greater efficiency of operations in units abroad, according to Fernando Meller, executive director of Human Resources at JBS Brazil. “We grew at a very great speed, we bought different companies, we lived the challenge of growth. With the program, we can take our quality, productivity and excellence faster, without a doubt; as we have more trained people who know our processes, we gain speed,” Meller said.
