Harnessing the Power of Multi-Generation Synergy
With this year’s HR Asia Awards theme of “Multi-Generation Synergy,” Carlsberg Vietnam stood out for fostering an environment where the creativity and energy of younger talent blend seamlessly with the experience and resilience of seasoned professionals.
This synergy is not just a slogan; it lives in every aspect of the employee experience: from talent development programs and internal mobility opportunities to continuous training and comprehensive healthcare policies. Every voice matters. Every employee is empowered and given the space to reach their full potential. By harnessing the strengths of a diverse workforce, Carlsberg Vietnam has become a benchmark for the “Multi-Generation Synergy” spirit celebrated by HR Asia.

Andrew Khan, Managing Director of Carlsberg Vietnam, shared: “This award is a testament to the trust, dedication, and shared spirit we’ve nurtured together over the years. With people at the heart of everything we do, we strive to build a workplace where learning, innovation, and inclusion are part of daily life, where every individual can grow to their fullest potential, while inspiring and uplifting one another to go further, together.”
A Growth Culture at the Heart of the Company
At Carlsberg Vietnam, growth is more than a business ambition; it is part of the company’s DNA. This growth culture is shaped by five core principles: living the spirit of Semper Ardens; fostering positive energy and compassion; being passionate about the consumer; decide fast and deliver with excellence; and empower, support, and grow its people.
These principles are translated into action through initiatives such as online learning platforms, practical coaching sessions, structured leadership programs, and transparent career progression pathways. Employees are encouraged to stretch beyond their limits, embrace new challenges, and lead from where they stand.
Training & development programs are held regularly, enabling employees to develop their skills and push beyond their limits.
Well-being and Safety: Caring Beyond the Workplace
Career growth at Carlsberg Vietnam goes hand in hand with holistic well-being. Mental health is not treated as a benefit, but as a strategic priority embedded in daily life.
The 2025 Well-being Program brought together more than 1,000 employees across the country for activities including football, badminton, pickleball, and running. Beyond improving physical health, these events strengthen team bonds, boost morale, and cultivate a sense of belonging.

Workplace safety is equally paramount. The annual Health & Safety Day equips employees with essential knowledge and reaffirms the company’s zero-accident commitment. A standout example came during the expansion of the Phu Bai Brewery, where Carlsberg Vietnam achieved more than 1.4 million safe working hours – a tangible testament that operational excellence can go hand in hand with care for people.

Diversity, Equity & Inclusion: Turning Differences into Strengths
For Carlsberg Vietnam, diversity is more than a checkbox – it’s a driver of creativity, resilience, and long-term growth. The company’s annual “Welcome You” campaign is a platform to celebrate individuality and foster mutual respect, with activities marking occasions such as Vietnamese Women’s Day, Pride Month, and International Men’s Day.
Gender equality is not just an aspiration but a reality: over 40% of senior leadership roles are currently held by women. This achievement reflects the company’s belief that leadership potential knows no gender, and that inclusion must be enacted through opportunity, empowerment, and accountability.

Putting People at the Heart of Sustainable Growth
“At Carlsberg Vietnam, we believe every employee is not only a reflection of our values but also a catalyst for sustainable growth,” said Andrew Khan, Managing Director of Carlsberg Vietnam. “Our mission goes beyond brewing exceptional beer – we are also ‘brewing’ a workplace where every individual is respected, empowered, and inspired to go further.”
With more than 30 years in Vietnam and three consecutive HR Asia honors, Carlsberg Vietnam views these milestones not as the culmination of its journey, but as the launchpad for the next chapter – one defined by continuous learning, collective success, and sustainable growth. The company’s mission extends beyond brewing exceptional beer; it is about brewing a culture where every person is respected, empowered, and inspired to make a difference, for a better today and tomorrow.
