Recognition of Excellence in HR and Technology
The HR Asia Best Companies to Work for in Asia Awards represents one of the region’s most prestigious employer recognition programs, identifying organizations that have been chosen by their own employees as Asia’s employers of choice. The awards program attracts applications from Fortune 500 companies, multinational corporations, and government-linked companies across Asia, making this recognition particularly significant.
“Our partners’ success is the truest measure of us fulfilling our purpose. And I am deeply proud that in doing so, we never lose sight of the human element in a world driven by technology,” said Med Sali-Gelacio, Cloudstaff Head of Human Resources. “This award is a testament to that balance—and above all, to our people. It is with them, and because of them, that we continue to build the #1 workplace everywhere.”
The newly received Tech Empowerment Award specifically honors organizations that embrace technology to drive operational excellence, streamline processes, and boost productivity while empowering their workforce through innovative hardware and software solutions.
