AIA Insurance has been recognised as a Great Place to Work in Sri Lanka for the sixth consecutive year.

This achievement comes on the heels of being inducted into the GPW Hall of Fame last year, having been recognised for five successive years.

This year too, AIA was adjudged one of Sri Lanka’s Best 25 Companies to work for, in addition to the Bronze Award in the Large Enterprise category.

Director HR Thushari Perera commending all at AIA for winning these awards said, “AIA is about being pre-eminent and constantly raising the bar. It is about empowering its people and creating the most conducive work environment, so everyone can be the best they can be”.

“We have a very special culture here at AIA. It is a bond between people that surpasses the business of the organization and is prevalent across all functions, across all employees regardless of position or designation. I believe it’s what keeps us together, moving towards one common goal and we value the feedback we receive from surveys such as GPW® and we use the indicators to constantly raise the benchmark in our employee satisfaction,”she said.

Chathuri Munaweera, Director and Chief Officer Legal, Governance, External Relations said, “Gender parity is central in having a dynamic balanced workforce.

Female employees and female Wealth Planners play an integral part in our business success.

“AIA recognised early, the narrowing trends of female participation at work and took many sustainable steps over the years to ensure that our female colleagues have a work environment that provides leverage and flexibility to arrange work within family circumstances, at times of life where such support is needed most,” she said.
