Edelweiss Life Insurance today announced it has been certified as a Great Place to Work for the 6th consecutive Year. This recognition reinforces the insurer’s commitment to nurturing long-term careers, a fitting reflection of a business rooted in long-term promises.
Saba Adil, Chief Human Resource Officer, Edelweiss Life Insurance, said, “In a business like ours, where advice and service are at the heart of every customer relationship, our people are our greatest differentiator. Building a workplace where they can grow, contribute meaningful, and build long-term careers is not only a cultural priority, but also a business imperative. At this point in our growth journey, the depth and continuity of talent will directly influence our ability to deliver on business goals. When employees stay and evolve with us, it strengthens customer trust and creates the foundation for sustained performance.”
Edelweiss Life has worked extensively on building its leadership strength internally through merit-based, structured talent-building programmes like Business Leaders and Emerging Leaders. Today ~70% of its senior leadership is home grown, supported by a retention rate of more than 95% among its key talent pool.
“Focused capability building in front-line sales has raised women representation to 38% as of December 2025, 10% up from the last 5 years. Currently, women account of 34% of the organisation’s workforce. Women value workplaces that understand and respond to their unique challenges. We have seen stronger outcomes by investing in their growth and enabling seamless work-life integration. Many of our women employees show higher stickiness and productivity because they see a longer-term path. Today, women form ~30% of the organisation’s key talent pool,” Adil added.
The life insurer remains committed to building a future-ready organisation, recognising that its people advantage will be a key driver of long-term growth.
