Spectra Logistics (Pvt) Ltd, an end-to-end logistics solutions provider, has been recognised as one of Sri Lanka’s best workplaces for the first time by Great Place to Work® Sri Lanka, the authority on high trust, high performance and positive workplace culture based on independent survey.

Commenting on this significant milestone, Mr. Thushara Jayasuriya, CEO of Spectra Logistics said, “We are proud to be recognised as a ‘Great Place to Work’ in Sri Lanka.  It is a validation of our company culture, HR processes and practices. We owe our success to our employees for their commitment and dedication in providing superior customer experience. I would like to thank them for all they have done to earn this recognition.”   

Since the acquisition of the company by McLarens Holdings in 2020, significant improvements in its HR practices were seen, with a strong focus on enhancing employees’ work experience and nurturing a growth centered workspace. The company implemented the “Best Employee of the Quarter” award, provided free lunches and free transportation despite the high transportation costs.
