HR Plus’ Post

Ovation In-Store wishes you all a happy International Women's Day. We are investing in promoting gender equality in the workplace and highlighting the contributions of women in the cosmetics and beauty industry, including founders, CEOs, and consumers.   Promoting greater equality for women in the workplace not only serves as a moral imperative but also brings numerous benefits to businesses. Research shows that companies with gender diversity in leadership positions perform better financially, are more innovative, and have higher employee satisfaction rates.    We'd like to highlight a few United Nations Global Compact Women's Empowerment Initiatives that we've adopted at Ovation In-Store. - Establishing high-level corporate leadership for gender equality. - Treating women and men equally - without discrimination in the workplace, upholding human rights, and supporting diversity. - Ensuring the health, safety, and well-being of all women and men workers. - Promoting education, training, and professional development for women. - Implementing enterprise development, supply chain, and marketing practices that empower women. - Promoting equality through community initiatives and advocacy. - Measuring and publicly reporting on progress to achieve gender equality.   With this post, we aim to encourage and inspire other organizations to take similar action towards promoting gender equality in their workplace. #IWD2024 #InternationalWomensDay #WomensHistoryMonth #WomensEmpowerment #SustainableDesign #InclusiveDesign #WeBuildBrands

Women in leadership is more than fairness and equity; evidence shows there are social, business and wider economic benefits with equal female representation in senior leadership positions.  While there are more women in leadership roles now than ever before, more need to follow. A report by the Department of the Premier & Cabinet noted only 20% of Australian industries have gender-balanced workforces. If women’s participation were equal to men, Australia’s GDP would increase by more than $30 billion by 2050 and create more than 1 million full-time jobs.  At IKEA, we see the benefits of diversity and inclusion for better business. Together, we can transform attitudes, behaviours and structures to create gender equality and unleash women in leadership.  #InternationalWomensDay2024 #IWD2024 #genderequality

In an industry as traditional as construction, we take pride in our team composition — we have both women and men equally represented both in our workforce and management. 🌟 Our Sustainability report shows that women are making up to 56% of our workforce, 60% of our leadership team, and 50% of our board. This balance fosters a company culture which has a rich diversity of thought and approaches to problem-solving and innovation. Gender equality is not self-evident even in the Nordic countries where Vieser is active. Corporate responsibility programs have an import role in building more inclusive work cultures. But no program can change attitudes, leadership is needed. Leaders have a genuine opportunity to shape the diverse mix of talents within their organizations. Hence a heartfelt thank you goes out to our CEO, Annika Jyllilä-Vertigans, for this inclusive culture. Her vision and relentless pursuit of finding the best talents open-minded have been instrumental in creating an environment where everyone can thrive. 🙌 Discover more about our initiatives here: https://lnkd.in/dVd7H9M9 📸 Here’s a snapshot from our recent team day in Helsinki earlier this year💗 #Vieserliving #ESG #CorporateResponsibility #CorporateEthics

💡 Did you know that there is a new dangerous myth that women are becoming less ambitious? In reality, women are actually more ambitious now than before the pandemic, and this ambition is fueled by flexibility. 📢 Lean In, together with McKinsey & Company, has released the annual study "Women in the Workplace," which is based on the numbers from corporate America. This report dispels four myths about women's workplace experiences and career advancement. While some of these myths may cover familiar ground, they are worth debunking over and over again, given the lack of progress in these areas. 🔔 Learn more about the study at our event "Women in Business: 4 myths & how skills shortage can help us to reach gender equality". We’ll also shed some light on how intersectionality is affecting women’s experience at work. Apart from discussing this report, we will also discover the highlights from the Swiss based Gender Intelligence Report and have a panel with high caliber speakers: Alkistis Petropaki, Reshma Ramachandran, Christian P. & Christina Bachmann-Roth 👏 Event details: 📅 December 12, 2023 ⏰ 17:30 - 21:30, including apéro  📍 Karl der Grosse, Kirchgasse 14, 8001 Zurich,Karl der Grosse - das Debattierhaus 🎫 Grab your ticket through the link in the comments ⬇  #WomenatWorkplace #GenderEquality  #WomeninBusiness #LeanIn #Mckinsey

Fostering allyship is pivotal in our mission to elevate women in leadership within the tech sector. This Forbes article underscores the ongoing challenges in achieving workplace equality, particularly the alarming projection of 132 years to reach gender parity. The three outlined ways to embody allyship—recognizing and addressing inappropriate behavior, ensuring organization-wide support, and adopting inclusive hiring practices—resonate with WECAN's ethos. Allyship is not a one-time initiative; it's a continual mindset, reflecting our belief in sustained efforts for meaningful change. https://lnkd.in/eKZVpsnY #wecan #wecanlead #careeraccelerather #wecaninnercircle #elevatewomenleaders #womenintechnology #techindustry #womenexecutives #femalementor #inclusiveness #equalrightsforwomen #femaleceos #femaleleadership #inspiringexecutives #mentorshipnetwork

Happy International Women’s Day! 🎉 🥳 Today, we celebrate the inspirational advocates who have paved the way for women around the world to get to where we are today.
