ABU DHABI, 9th January, 2025 (WAM) -- Emirates Global Aluminium (EGA) today announced that
the company hired 113 Emirati women in 2024, more than half the 220 Emiratis recruited by EGA
during the year.
EGA aims that women hold 25 percent of supervisory roles by the end of this year, and 15 percent of
all roles by the end of 2026. Currently, women hold 23.3 percent of supervisory roles and 9.6
percent of all roles at the company.

At the end of 2024, EGA’s in-focus Emiratisation rate was 44.3 percent. On a like-for-like basis, EGA
has one of the highest Emiratisation rates of any major company considering the high number of
industrial positions.

EGA now aims to accelerate in-focus Emiratisation to reach 50 percent by the end of 2027. This
means EGA expects to hire up to 600 UAE Nationals over the period.
