National, June 19, 2021: AirAsia India was recognised among India’s ‘Best Workplaces™ in Transportation’ by the Great Place to Work® institute, which assesses the strengths of workplace cultures across organizations. The recognition reinforces AirAsia India’s embodiment of its People First value, and is based on validated employee feedback gathered by the Great Place to Work® Institute in an independent assessment.

Through the last year, its Allstars (as AirAsia employees are fondly known) participated in continuous engagement initiatives, with a supportive work culture that empowers employees to be productive at work and lead a happy and balanced life. The dynamic and open organisational culture is built on a flat hierarchy which enables a collaborative and innovative operating environment.

As an organisation that continually works towards fostering a supportive and inclusive culture and empowering employees, AirAsia has been taking the lead in encouraging diversity in the workplace. This recognition is testament to AirAsia India’s efforts to ensure that everyone, irrespective of their job role, tenure, age or gender, has a consistently positive experience.

Speaking on the occasion, Sunil Bhaskaran, CEO & MD, AirAsia India, said, “It is gratifying to be recognised among India’s Best Workplaces™ in Transportation. We firmly believe that an organisation’s success and its culture, specially in a service industry like ours, is defined by its employees. The foundation of our success is the manner in which we remain true to our core values – and this recognition is a testament to our efforts to always put People First.”

Ms Anjali Chatterjee, Head – People & Culture, AirAsia India said “After being recognised amongst India’s Great Places to Work for two consecutive years, it is a proud moment for us to also be among India’s Best Workplaces™️ in Transportation. We all vouch for each other as a large team and this certification is yet another feather in our cap. The commendable work ethic reflected by our teams has greatly influenced and acted as a catalyst in creating a healthy and positive work environment. We are optimistic about continuing to spread this energy and excel in all our endeavours.”

Every year, more than 10,000 organizations from over 58 countries partner with Great Place to Work® Institute for assessment, benchmarking and planning actions to strengthen their workplace culture. Great Place to Work® Institute’s methodology is recognized as rigorous and objective and is considered as the gold standard for defining great workplaces across business, academia and government organizations.

AirAsia India’s continuous efforts to streamline their processes that help people and improve business outcomes has facilitated the airline to bag this honorable title.
