the sustainability journey, DGHR Department has been committed to launching programs

that prioritise the well-being of the human element as the most significant resource. The
‘Empowering Human Resources Departments’ project serves as a comprehensive

roadmap for initiatives aimed at motivating and qualifying our workforce. It provides HR
Departments with the necessary tools to uphold the governance of the operating model in

line with global best practices. Through this project, our objective is to elevate the
