the company’s board members chaired by H.E. Nader
Al Hammadi and his Vice Chairman Sheikh Ahmed Al
Dhaheri, ADA pursued a strategy of diversification
over the years. This diversification helped ADA
Group withstand serious shockwaves from these
unprecedented challenges. The company’s
sound performance over the years and its equity
investment in assets (aircraft and properties),
supported the company’s ability to generate
sufficient EBITDA to maintain a healthy cash
position in difficult times.
During my eleven years in ADA, we have faced a
number of challenges and we were able to overcome
them without taking extreme measures. We have
always made financial decisions based on the best
interests of our shareholders and employees, and
this has included targeted cost cutting measures that
have contributed to our goal of sustaining long term
corporate value. We understand that some staff found
these dispersed measures difficult at the time; however,
it has allowed us to mitigate more significant problems.
In addition, it is crucial during these tough times that
ADA board members, GM, DGM and executive directors

and managers work together to formulate a balanced
strategy to protect the staff as well as maintaining
STRUCTURE
the shareholders’ interests. My role as CFO is to
enhance the corporate value, manage revenue
efficiently, control cost, manage cash flow and
ensure that the board approved budget is met. I
act as a catalyst for the management team and
provide them with relevant and timely financial
and management information that enables us as
a team to collectively make informed decisions
that propel the company forward.
This collective approach enabled the company to
respond swiftly to the inherent challenges caused by
this pandemic.
Under the direct supervision of the General
Manager and with the help of the procurement
team, ADA took various safety measures to

PREVENTION GUIDE FOR
ABU DHABI AVIATION
EMPLOYEES FROM COVID 19
To enhance the precautionary efforts
and preventive measures taken
against the novel Corona Virus
(Covid-19), we ensure the highest
levels of protection for Abu Dhabi
Aviation employees whose jobs
require daily attendance at the
workplace.
Kindly review the mandatory safety
measures to avoid infection to ensure
full functioning at work.
46 Issue No.3 Quarter 2, Mar - Jun 2020 www.ada.aeHR AWARENESS
WHEN USING YOUR OWN CAR TO GO TO WORK:
• Ensure that the door handle and the car steering are
sterilized periodically.
• Carry an alcohol sterilizer all the time.
• Wear protective gloves, sleeves, and closed shoes.
• Use a credit card instead of cash and sterilize it after use.
WHEN USING PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION TO GO
TO WORK:
• Wear protective gloves, sleeves, and closed shoes.
• Carry an alcohol sterilizer all the time.
• Ensure that the means of transportation are not crowded.
• Leave enough safety distance between you and the rest of
the passengers.
TO ENSURE THE HIGHEST LEVELS OF SAFETY AND
PREVENTION IN THE WORKPLACE:
• Dispose of gloves and masks and throw them in the place
designated for that.
• Wash hands with soap and water every hour.
• Maintain a distance of two meters between you and your
co-workers.
• Avoid closed meetings that require physical attendance and
use technical means for this.
• Not be in contact with co-workers during the lunch break
and in smoking places, and remember that quitting smoking
strengthens the immune system.
• Perform prayer alone and on your own carpet.
After work hours are over, head home
immediately, wash hands with soap and
water, shower and change clothes.
Your commitment to applying these health
safety standards would reduce the risk of
infection and infecting your family and
colleagues. It would also support the efforts
of the competent authorities to completely
get rid of this new epidemic.
Your health and well being is a priority.
