In fact, the Guglielmo Marconi appeared at the top of the specific ranking of Italy's Best Employers 2022, the research compiled by the Statista study center. It is an analysis that covered several Italian companies with at least 250 employees. From these emerged the 400 "finalists," divided into 20 areas of expertise.
The success of the Bologna airport
Statista's study involved a total of 22,000 workers, who were asked to respond anonymously on various aspects related to the quality of life in the workplace, ranging from various topics: flexibility, office comfort, the validity of corporate welfare plans, dialogue between managers and workers, to the possibility and methods of accessing smartworking, which has become a crucial issue in the last year and a half.
So Statista collected hundreds of thousands of online responses, which were processed to build a ranking of the top 400 Italian companies in which to work. It was Heineken that topped the list overall, while Bologna Airport ranked 138th overall, but 8th among companies in the Transportation and Logistics sector and 1st among Italian airports.

The grade, like that of a school report card, obtained by the Guglielmo Marconi is 8.05 out of 10, allowing it to be confirmed as the best airport to work in again this year, following the affirmation of the previous edition of the study commissioned by Corriere della Sera, and available in full on Statista's website.
Adding to the value of the result, consider also the complicated working conditions that employees in each sector have faced since the outbreak of the pandemic, as well as a general economic crisis that has particularly affected the air travel industry, reducing-and, in some periods, even suspending-flights altogether. Despite this, Bologna airport has seen an increase in the quality of the working environment, seeing its grade rise from the previous year's 7.82.
Marconi Airport, a story of care and efficiency
Growth also achieved thanks to its employee welfare policy. There are specific employee health protection actions confirmed with respect to 2020. In fact, the company continues to offer free swabs and serological tests. Expanded insurance coverage with regard to Covid positivity. Supports and promotes the vaccination campaign within the entire airport environment. It has also established a psychological support desk for its workers.
Investments and innovations that confirm the airport's efficiency and excellent layout. Opened back in 1933 and expanded in 2004, it has attracted to the capital of Emilia-Romagna the international flights of the well-known Irish low-cost airline Ryanair. A path of steady growth that has gone hand in hand precisely with continued attention to the interests and needs of all employees. Characteristics that have allowed Marconi to establish itself as a Italy's eighth busiest airport with more than 1,900,000 passengers annually. The numbers are obviously affected by the coronavirus crisis: in 2019, the last pre-pandemic year, the number of travelers passing through Bologna had been more than 9 million.
