Substantial investment has been made in information technology. A major benefit accruing from the company's information system is the elastic capacity to develop a database in key areas of management of the business as well as improving total process performance. With the new system, the Group has strengthened its position as a frontline contender in each product group and market sector in which it operates.

The company remains committed to making sure that employees are adequately remunerated and that they work in the most rewarding environment. The annual appraisal process identifies training and development needs for each employee. The annual training programmes are designed to meet these needs and, in this regard, extensive training programmes, including internal and external courses, are carried out.

The group has undergone a major restructuring exercise. The restructuring exercise reflects the emerging trends in market competition, consumer orientations in the light of the larger macro-economic and social realities and the group's core businesses and competencies. A redeployment of staff within and across divisional boundaries has also been carried out to ensure that staff are in functions and positions where they can make optimal use of their skills and competencies.
