🌟 Celebrating International Women's Day: Inspiring Inclusion 🌟 On this International Women's Day, we proudly celebrate the theme of "Inspiring Inclusion." At Bisedge, we firmly believe that inclusion is not just a buzzword; it's the bedrock of progress and success in every organization. To mark this special day, we've turned the spotlight on some of our remarkable employees who embody the spirit of inclusion and gender equality. Here's what they had to say: Aminat Ilavbare, Chief Financial Officer: "At Bisedge, our male allies can actively promote gender inclusion by respecting women, challenging biases, and amplifying their voices. They should mentor and sponsor women, even in our male-dominated industry. Bisedge’s commitment to 50% female representation in management and the female operators’ program (FOP) demonstrates strong allyship, aiming for 30% female operators by 2028." Queendarlyn C. FABIAN, Forklift Operator and Bukes. E Saliu, Site Supervisor, both believe: "Inspiring inclusion involves recognizing and combating biases that hinder progress. Bisedge challenges stereotypes and makes conscious efforts to ensure that women are represented at all levels within the organization and the logistics industry. By providing equal opportunities for growth, supporting women's advancement, and promoting gender diversity, we create a stronger, more inclusive workplace for everyone." Olatunde Arogundade, Chief Operating Officer: "Organizations like Bisedge should promote gender equality by implementing unbiased hiring practices, providing equal opportunities for advancement, offering mentorship programs, ensuring pay equity, fostering open dialogue about gender issues, and creating supportive policies for work-life balance.” Olubukola Oluwamese, SPHRi MBA ACIPM, Head of Human Resources: “At Bisedge, we have worked on diversifying our talent acquisition processes through employee referral initiatives and blind resume screening processes to reduce unconscious bias in hiring female forklift operators, implementing pay equity measures, and ensuring diverse representation in our senior leadership positions”. Temitope ., Head of Admin & Logistics: "Young women aspiring to succeed in traditionally male-dominated fields like we have in Bisedge should be bold and visible, trust in their abilities, and exude confidence. Even if you have to fake it until you make it, believe in your skills, education, and ability to excel just as well, if not better, than your male counterparts." With these insightful responses, our employees remind us of the importance of inspiring inclusion and promoting gender equality. Together, we can build a workplace where every Bisedge employee can reach their full potential, regardless of gender. Let us celebrate International Women's Day with the rest of the world by embracing diversity, and working towards a future where inclusion knows no boundaries. Happy International Women's Day! 💐 #InspiringInclusion #IWD2024
