 AIA Insurance is proud to be recognised in the Best Workplaces in Asia list - Large Category, making it the first time AIA Sri Lanka is recognised in this prestigious international list.  


Awarded by the Great Place to Work, the internationally acclaimed list follows a strict criterion in acknowledging the best of the best in terms of workplaces in the Asia region. 


The international recognition follows hot on the heels of AIA being recognised as a Best Workplace by Great Place to Work in Sri Lanka for the ninth consecutive year. AIA was inducted into the Great Place to Work Hall of Fame in 2017, in its fifth straight year of winning the award and has thereby been established as a leading employer in Sri Lanka. Apart from the main recognition of being a Best Workplace, AIA Sri Lanka has received many category awards from Great Place to Work institute over the years and has also been recognised as a Best Workplace for Women for three consecutive years.


AIA CEO Nikhil Advani said in this regard, “For us at AIA, employee’s trust and pride towards the workplace are of primary importance – to that end we focus on ensuring an equal opportunity, safe environment where people can enjoy a balance between personal well-being, career growth, sense of community and adding value to themselves and our shareholders. Being recognised a Best Workplace for nine consecutive years is testament that we are doing this right.”


He added, “To be recognised for the first time in the Best Workplaces in Asia list is an immense honour for us, especially amidst the current COVID-19 pandemic. As we work hard towards enabling high levels of staff engagement during work from home and ensuring a safe working environment for staff at office, this award is a tribute to all our employees for making us what we are today.” 


AIA Director HR Thushari Perera also commented, “We are delighted to add these world-class accolades to our credentials as we continue to prioritise employee happiness, care, development and well-being. Winning these prestigious awards, both locally and internationally, reaffirms AIA’s success in differentiating itself as a great workplace for our employees, having established ourselves as a superlative employer of choice.”
