Our world-class crop and seed solutions have their beginnings in people. We view everything we do through the lens of how it will affect our stakeholders – employees, farmers, supply chain partners, customers, and business associates. Which is why our organisational culture always prioritises wellness, learning, fairness, and inclusivity.
People have always been at the centre of UPL’s operating ethos. They are one of the important pillars of UPL’s strategic intent.
We’re focused on identifying and creating engaged, enthusiastic employees, and a workplace where people want to stay on and thrive. UPL is committed to paying attention to every facet of work that makes our employees feel inter connected within the social fabric of the organisation.

Employee Health & Wellbeing
The pandemic saw us face situations and experiences that were unprecedented. We came up against scenarios and circumstances for which we did not have Standard Operating Procedures. Social isolation, health concerns, personal and family care and wellbeing, were just some of the pressures that employees, and by extension, our organisation had to adjust for.
