Winning the UFI HR Award for the second consecutive year is a powerful affirmation of IMPACT’s commitment to people-driven innovation, sustainable performance, and long-term workforce well-being. This back-to-back recognition reflects the strength and agility of our HR team - and reinforces our belief that people are the true driving force of the organisation. Empowering them makes anything possible.”
