Air Canada was recognized at the annual Canadian HR Awards with the Payworks Award for Best Corporate Social Responsibility Strategy recently. This honour recognizes an organization for successfully establishing corporate social responsibility in its culture through its people and the role HR had in the strategy and execution of such initiatives.

Arielle Meloul-Wechsler, Executive Vice President, Chief Human Resources Officer and Public Affairs, said: “We are thrilled with this recognition as we see the integration of sustainability, environmental and social elements throughout our organization as equally important to economic factors in contributing to our airline’s success. We have cultivated our corporate culture to consider sustainability and social good aspects in our strategic decision making, and this in turn has resulted in a wide range of opportunities to cultivate employee engagement in important causes that make a difference.”
