A Chanel holiday ATLAS Healthcare launched the ICAS Employee Assistance Programme to its intermediar- ies during an event organised purposely for its network. The aim of the event was to introduce participants to the service, so that going forward, they would be able to pro- mote the service with their corporate clients. ICAS International is a lead- ing global provider of employ- ee assistance programmes, health and well-being services and critical incident support. ICAS delivers a high level of service through a network of international offices and stra- tegic partners, covering over 200 countries and territories. The topic "Optimal Engage- ment – Maximum Energy: an introduction to Employee Assistance Programmes" was presented by Wiebke Wel- gemoed, Chief Operating Of- ficer – ICAS International, who was in Malta for this event. Attendees were welcomed by Catherine Calleja, Manag- ing Director of Atlas Health- care. "In the corporate con- text, employee well-being, or lack of it, can lead to higher employee turnover and loss of productivity. ICAS employee assistance programmes offer a 24/7 tel- ephone support system for employees – reducing ab- senteeism, staff turnover and healthcare costs and increas- ing productivity and engage- ment," she explained. Welgemoed explained how EAPs fuel highly effective workplaces. As our lives get busier, mental health issues such as anxiety and depres- sion are on the increase. Such issues can spill over into our work lives, making people unhappy and less productive. Through these services, em- ployees can find support in various aspects of their lives, and not just the work-related ones. She described the services being provided in Malta, in- cluding 24/7 counselling support, financial and legal helplines and even manager support. These services are all provided with full confiden- tiality for the employees who choose to pick up the phone when they need assistance.

With over 540 passengers celebrating a shared sense of place and pride to call the UAE their home, the one-of-a-kind flight, unprecedented in the industry, was an impactful initiative to showcase the UAE's spirit of unity and inclu- siveness. The flight welcomed passengers from dif- ferent backgrounds, ethnicities, religions and cultures and included families and children, Emirates Group employees, as well as People of Determination. Passengers were encouraged to come in their national dress, and throughout the flight, their colourful costumes became a vibrant collage honouring their different herit- ages and traditions. EK 2019 was commanded by UAE Nation- als Captain Abbas Shaban and Captain Sheikh Saeed Al Maktoum, and First Officer Karin Arning from Germany. The 22 cabin crew on flight EK 2019 hailed from 18 countries, and were led by flight purser Jafar Hamad, a UAE National. On an average flight, Emirates cabin crew represent up to 15 nationalities, proudly serving customers across the airline's network. An average Emirates flight typically carries more than 50 nationali- ties onboard. The airline attempted to welcome as many na- tionalities as possible onto flight EK2019, for a special flight journey across all seven emirates. After passengers checked in, they were wel- comed by Emirates cabin crew and were invited to take keepsake photos to mark the special event. Passengers were also able to write their names and wishes for the Year of Tolerance on a special message wall. Before boarding, a be- spoke stamp to mark this special flight was put on each boarding pass as an added keepsake for passengers. Once onboard and ready for take-off, special Year of Tolerance content was available on ice for viewing by all passengers. Just before de- scent, an Official Adjudicator from GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS™, who was onboard verify- ing nationality counts, officially announced a new GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS title for most nationalities on an aircraft. As passengers disembarked, they were handed certificates of participation for taking part in this historic activity. A ceremony took place in front of the aircraft to mark the record, and a group photo with all 541 passengers was taken in front of the Emirates "Year of Tolerance" A380. Over 540 passengers from 145 nationalities were onboard to bring to life ż the UAE's multicultural strength and diversity 145 nationalities and a kaleidoscope of cultures come together to make history on an Emirates flight
