Worley India has been taking huge strides in the Diversity & Inclusion pathway by adopting some cutthroat practices, making it a truly inclusive employer of choice for women talent. The organization is proud to achieve a hiring of 60% women from graduate engineering campuses. It came after a hard-fought campaign by the talent team fully supported by leadership. While the women's talent pipeline was being enriched at the entry level, Worley recognized the importance of strategically introducing experienced women professionals into roles where they could make the most impact. This led to the formulation of a completely women-led task force for an energy transition project, Prerna, spanning from project management to execution team. The leadership's vision was clear: "We cannot achieve a net-zero future without equal participation and diverse perspectives from women." As young graduates and experienced female professionals integrated into the thriving ecosystem, Worley also devised a women's returnship program. This initiative successfully facilitated the return of 20 women who had taken career breaks, ensuring a seamless transition back into the workforce for them.
