The award is the recognition of the most engaged workplace cultures in the world. This is the seventh year ACT Fibernet has been named a GEWA winner.
After another year of disruption in the workplace, Gallup found that ACT Fibernet continued to engage and develop its people in innovative ways. ACT Fibernet has built a sustainable engagement strategy, demonstrating exceptional dedication to its 8000-strong workforce. The leadership’s commitment to strengthening employee engagement building a strong organizational culture and maintain a hands-on approach through frontline involvement is very clear. The mutual respect between management and staff is a testament to ACT’s positive work environment.
ACT prioritizes individual dignity and strives to maintain a sense of familiarity. The company focuses on recruiting top talent, nurturing employee skills through innovative development programs, and leveraging these capabilities to deliver exceptional service to its extensive customer base.
Avantika Susan Nigam, Chief People Officer, ACT Fibernet, said, “We are deeply honored to receive the Gallup Exceptional Workplace Award for the seventh consecutive year.

“Congratulations to the 60 organizations that have redefined what it means to be a great place to work. Your commitment to creating environments where employees are listened to, valued and positioned to use their strengths every day is what sets you apart.

The GEWA winners’ ratio of engaged employees to actively disengaged employees is 11 times higher than the global average. Worldwide, only 23% of employees are engaged — that is, committed to their work and connected to their workplace. Seventy percent of employees at winning GEWA organizations are engaged.
