Women in utilities: Overcoming the mid-career challenge This is a really good long read from Utility Week. It examines barriers to female progression in the industry and solutions from gender equality advocates, including our Chair Katie Jackson, Jo Butlin of WUN - Womens Utilities Network and Cordi O'Hara OBE FEI of National Grid. Explore: ➡️ why mid-career is an especially knotty challenge for women ➡️ the unfair assumptions rooted in gender stereotypes ➡️ why there's a gap between policies being offered and policies being used effectively, eg on flexible working ➡️ the value of inclusion and allyship ➡️ how equal parental leave could be a game changer ➡️ examples of actions that are making a positive difference within companies. https://lnkd.in/eZF7_cpW #womeninenergy #womeninutilities #genderequality #diversityandinclusion

It’s so true that equality in the workplace begins with equality at home. As women, many of us still carry the disproportionate load of housework and caregiving, which makes it even harder to thrive professionally. We all have shouldered more responsibilities at home, mostly not knowing due to our societal beliefs and managing the bulk of responsibilities at home. But here’s the thing—real change starts with conversations. We need to involve our families and communities in finding solutions that empower women to share the load equally at home. It’s not just about fairness; it’s about setting ourselves up for success in every aspect of life. Let’s support one another and work towards creating homes—and workplaces—where equality isn’t just an aspiration but a reality. Join me in this journey, and together we can redefine what equality looks like for women everywhere! #WomenInTheWorkplace #EqualityAtHome HLL Lifecare Ltd Steel Authority of India Limited University of Rajasthan Institute of Cost Accountants of India Khalid Riaz Mrinalini S Raji L CMA.

Today is International Women's Day, and this year's theme is Inspire Inclusion. When women aren't present, we must ask: "If not, why not?" When women are discriminated against, we must call out poor practice. When the treatment of women is not equitable, we must take action. And we must do this each time, every time. https://lnkd.in/gcFayK9y - #InspireInclusion #WIPE #WomenEmpowered #WomenEmpowering #WomenEmpowerment
