The Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) conferred Reliance Jio with a special award for HR Impact in People Practices.
This was in recognition for Reliance Jio creating and launching Jio services across 18,000 cities and towns and more than 200,000 villages through a network of 1,215 offices and a formidable team of over 60,000 employees across India.
As one of India's youngest start-ups, the average age at Reliance Jio is 30 years, making Reliance Jio an organisation of the young, by the young, and for the young.
The HR team has further created an ecosystem across India, where the company has more than 500,000 partners, and considers them part of the Jio family. Together with all partners, the Jio family is nearly 5,000,000-strong.
Some of the other awardees were IDBI Bank for excellence in social media, Aditya Birla Group for developing leaders of tomorrow, Aegis for diversity and inclusion, Pepsico and Wipro for talent sourcing and staffing.
