It's more than an anthropomorphism. Companies are legal persons, and
most commercial law that applies to human beings (legally: natural
persons) also applies to corporate persons. Employees generally act as
agents of the company.
I believe this is true for the USA and UK.
(Michael Moore's film, "Corporation", plays on this technicality by
trying to attribute a personality type to companies.)
