IFFCO Group “Proud to be Recertified” as a Great Place to Work in the UAE and Saudi Arabia
DUBAI, UAE: The IFFCO Group has announced that the organisation has been recertified as a Great Place To Work® in the UAE and Saudi Arabia, a reflection of the company’s dedication to building and maintaining an excellent workplace environment, based on the fundamental principle of offering dynamic and innovative opportunities to every member of staff, wherever they work around the world, and focusing on their qualities.
Rizwan Ahmed, Executive Director at IFFCO Group, expressed his delight at the announcement, saying: “We are a multinational organisation, and it is a core value that we remain 100% committed to the welfare and prospects of the so many diverse people and cultures who work with us and across our complete supply chain: we are honoured by the faith and trust that they in turn have demonstrated to us through supporting IFFCO’s recertification by the ‘Great Place to Work’ initiative.
“In addition, as advocates of a DEI-centered recruitment philosophy, we put an emphasis on attracting a diverse pool of candidates, for example: by using inclusive language in job descriptions, partnering with diverse recruit ment platforms and ensuring that our interview panels include individuals from a range of backgrounds, we safeguard the process of conducting fair and unbiased assessments – then make sure that we put the right candidates in the right place, at the right time.
“More to the point is the fact that at IFFCO Group, we actively pursue a policy of ‘whole-career’ duty of care to all employees, offering a multitude of training and up-skilling opportunities while promoting a healthy work-life balance, enabling us to attract and retain the very best people.”
Mohammed AlShair, Executive Chairman of Great Place to Work® Middle East, said: “Congratulations to IFFCO Group for being certified by Great Place to Work® Middle East for the second time! This repeated recognition is a testament to your commitment to fostering a positive and supportive work environment and we applaud your dedication to your employees.”
