First Capital Holdings PLC, a subsidiary of JXG (Janashakthi Group) and a pioneering force in Sri Lanka’s capital markets, has been recognised as one of the Great Workplaces for Young Talent in Sri Lanka for 2026 by Great Place To Work® Sri Lanka, reflecting its commitment to creating a workplace where young professionals can grow, contribute, and thrive.

The recognition is based on the globally recognised Great Place To Work® For All™ model, which evaluates organisations through the Trust Index™ Employee Experience Survey and Culture Audit™. The Trust Index™ measures employees’ experiences across trust, pride, and camaraderie, while the Culture Audit™ evaluates the people practices that support and sustain a positive employee experience.

The 2026 study covers organisations assessed between June 2025 and May 2026. Eligible organisations must be registered in Sri Lanka, have more than 20 employees aged 35 or below representing at least 10% of their workforce, meet the qualifying criteria for Great Place To Work Certified™, and demonstrate people practices that support a Great Place To Work® For All™.

At First Capital, the recognition reflects a culture that encourages young professionals to take ownership, develop their capabilities, and contribute to the organisation’s growth. Through learning opportunities, collaborative practices, and a focus on employee development, First Capital continues to create an environment where young talent can build meaningful careers.

Chamara Pussella, Head of Human Resources at First Capital Holdings PLC, commented, “Being recognised as a Great Workplace for Young Talent affirms our commitment to creating an environment where young professionals can learn, contribute, and progress. We place strong emphasis on development opportunities, collaboration, and a culture where employees feel respected and empowered to take ownership of their growth.
