Elbit Systems will hold its annual employee vacation for its 22,500 workers and their families in Eilat, Israel, this year, a departure from the company's usual practice of holding the event abroad. The decision aims to strengthen solidarity among employees and their families with Israeli society and the state.
In addition to employees, the company will also host wounded IDF soldiers and bereaved families as part of the event. Elbit Systems has increased its support for these populations since October 7.
Dr. Shelly Gordon, Vice President of Human Resources at Elbit Systems, stated, "We decided to hold the company's vacation here in Israel this year because, first and foremost, Elbit is an Israeli company, deeply rooted within Israeli society and economy. The natural and right thing for us is to embrace and include wounded IDF soldiers, a population we have supported for years, and even more so since October 7."
