<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>The airline is now the largest employer in the UAE and shows a high level of concern for the welfare of its 62,000 workers – many of whom are far away from their homelands. </strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The Emirates fleet is young and eco-efficient and the airline has done much to support the Dubai Desert Conservation Reserve and eco-tourism projects in the UAE and Australia. The judging panel felt that Emirates take their CSR responsibilities very seriously and are making good progress.</p>
