Celebrating Human Capital: Employee Engagement of the Year

One of the standout accolades for SAL was the Employee Engagement of the Year award, which reflects the company’s profound commitment to fostering workforce wellness. SAL has implemented a range of internal communication initiatives that have significantly boosted team morale and reinforced its dedication to celebrating diverse causes and important milestones.

From commemorating National Day and Women’s Day to conducting awareness campaigns for Cybersecurity Awareness Month and organizing Blood Donation drives, SAL has created a vibrant workplace culture. The SAL Employee Recognition Program has been pivotal in rewarding innovation and problem-solving among employees, fostering a culture of creativity and continuous improvement.

Prioritizing Health: Health Initiative of the Year

SAL’s commitment to employee health was further recognized with the Health Initiative of the Year award.

Among these initiatives is the “Stepping is a Blessing” program, which encourages employees to maintain an active lifestyle during the holy month of Ramadan by tracking their steps and participating in friendly challenges.

In addition to physical health, SAL has placed significant emphasis on mental well-being. The company organized painting sessions during Mental Health Awareness Day, aimed at reducing stress and fostering self-expression. The success of these sessions led employees to request monthly gatherings, showcasing the positive impact of such initiatives.

Collaborating with the Saudi German Hospital, SAL launched the Health Lounge Initiative, providing regular medical check-ups for employees across the Kingdom. This proactive approach ensures that employees remain healthy and productive, contributing to the overall success of the organization. The effectiveness of these initiatives is evident in SAL’s employee satisfaction survey, which recorded a remarkable 98% participation rate, reflecting high engagement levels across both internal and social media platforms.

Revolutionizing Customer Experience: Digital Logistics Award
