Public Works Authority (Ashghal) was recognised at the third edition of 'The GCC Best Employer' brand awards in the Gulf region for the year 2016 held in Dubai recently.
Employer Branding Institute organised the awards ceremony in collaboration with Asian Foundation CHRO, the strategic partner for the event.
Ashghal received the award as one of the best employers in human resources development in the Gulf region.
The Institute developed a number of factors based on which the winners were selected. The criteria focused on the winners' commitment to a framework that provides a role model for learning and development initiatives.
The framework also excels in applying recruitment best practices, training, employees retention and works towards continuous innovation. It also enables employees to improve their performance, attract new employees and ensure retention, in line with its business growth and building a global workforce culture.
The award was received by Saif Ali al Kaabi, manager of Human Resources Department in Ashghal, in recognition of the development's policies and practices over the last five years, making it 'a unique place to work'.
Winners were selected by an expert panel of judges comprising HR consultants from GCC countries from a list of 100 government, semi-government agencies and private companies.
Ashghal continues its efforts in supporting creative workforce initiatives with regards to attracting and retaining employees, and always seeks to be a key player in workforce recruitment in Qatar and the GCC.
