Omega Healthcare has been listed in the following award winners and will receive its awards on November 3 at the “Best Practices of the Best” conference in Avtar.
- India's Best Employers for Women (Best Companies for Women in India , BCWI ) — BCWI Hall of Fame
For the sixth consecutive year, the company has been recognized as one of "India's Best Female Employers," highlighting its commitment to creating a work environment that allows women to thrive fully. It has also been inducted into the BCWI Hall of Fame, an honor awarded to organizations that have maintained this ranking for five years or more.
- Most Inclusive Companies Index ( Most Inclusive Companies Index , MICI ) — Inclusion Champions
For the second consecutive year, the company has been awarded the title of "Inclusion Champion" in recognition of its ongoing efforts to build a culture that welcomes and values diverse perspectives and experiences.
- Best Companies for Workplace Health ( Best Companies for Workplace Wellness , BCWW ) — Top Ten Best Companies
The company was selected as one of the “Top Ten Best Companies for Workplace Health” in 2026 in recognition of its commitment to employee well-being.
Omega Healthcare, Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder, stated: "To be recognized in these prestigious benchmarks strengthens our belief that incorporating diverse perspectives, building a culture that emphasizes a sense of belonging, and prioritizing employee well-being will enhance our success. This achievement belongs to every employee who actively promotes inclusivity within the organization. We will continue to invest in our employees and are always committed to creating an environment where everyone can succeed, make meaningful contributions, and grow together with One Omega."
Omega Healthcare Vice President of Human Resources Lalitha M. Shetty stated: "The importance of these honors lies in the fact that they validate the culture we have consciously built at Omega Healthcare – a culture where people feel accepted, supported, and empowered to perform at their best. Receiving recognition in all three categories in the same year is a significant achievement for our company, as it reflects the consistency of our commitments to our employees. For us, inclusivity, well-being, and opportunities are not isolated initiatives or activities; they are integral parts of how we build our workplace and conduct our business. Most importantly, these awards reflect not only how we describe our own culture, but also how our employees truly experience it – and that is what motivates us to continuously raise our standards."
Avtar Group The Managing Director, Saundarya Rajesh Ph.D., stated: "We extend our heartfelt congratulations to our award-winning companies and also thank every organization that participated. The benchmark assessment process conducted by Avtar and Seramount is a valuable opportunity to honestly examine our current position and identify ways in which we can do better. Companies that consciously invest in their employees' well-being are also more likely to demonstrate stronger representativeness and higher retention rates. Health and inclusivity are not separate issues; they reinforce each other."
The 2026 "India's Best Female Employers" award, organized by Avtar and Seramount, has entered its 11th edition. This award aims to recognize organizations that are taking concrete steps to create workplaces where women can build their careers, assume leadership roles, and thrive. The "Most Inclusive Companies Index" evaluates initiatives in areas such as gender, generational diversity, disability inclusion, LGBTQ, and regional/cultural inclusivity. The criteria for selecting winners in the workplace health category are based on the depth of well-being integration into their systems, leadership practices, and culture, rather than just the projects implemented.
