Delta Named No. 3 on 2025 PEOPLE Companies That Care List
Delta Air Lines has been recognized by PEOPLE magazine as No. 3 on the 2025 PEOPLE Companies That Care List. The ranking reflects employee survey feedback and company data assessing workplace culture and community engagement.
The PEOPLE Companies That Care list is based on over 1.3 million employee survey responses and information from companies representing the experience of more than 8.4 million employees. More than 1 million responses came from employees at companies eligible for this year’s list.
“Delta people show care in their work, for customers, communities, and one another – that is the Delta Difference,” said Allison Ausband, Delta’s Chief People Officer.
“I am encouraged by the actions of more than 100,000 people who contribute to Delta and beyond.”
Examples of employee and company initiatives:
The Delta Care Fund, a nonprofit funded and managed by employees, provided $6.6 million in grants in 2024 to employees facing unexpected personal crises.
The emergency savings program supported 49,000 employees in earning $1,000 after completing a financial education course, with access to financial coaching for debt reduction and credit improvement.
In 2024, employees and customers raised $18 million for seven nonprofit partners.
Employees volunteered 124,000 hours in 2024 through community projects such as Habitat for Humanity builds, playground construction, tree planting, and meal packing.
