Alina Ionescu, chief people officer at SITA, said: “What makes a workplace great isn’t a label. It’s the feeling that you matter. Our people are at the heart of every decision we make. This certification reflects their voices, their care for one another, and the community they build every day. We focus on developing skills, fostering high performance, and supporting each other through inclusion and ethical leadership, and that shows in the pride our people feel.”
