The organization has strived to focus efforts towards equality and diversity by bridging the gender gap and increasing the number of women across levels. They have a mandate that 50% of candidate profiles for every position are women. For director-level positions, the target is 28% women profiles. In talent acquisition, they have a target of 35% of total positions to be filled by women candidates. In 2022, they surpassed the target to reach 38%, an increase of 3%. For senior manager profiles, a female member is part of the panel to overcome bias. Exclusive training and developmental programs locally and globally target women at three levels. Empowerment for women employees in individual contributor roles or first-time managers who aspire to become leaders. Diversity by Design for women at the middle management, who are on the leadership threshold, and the third for women at senior levels. This year, women have assumed leadership roles, and 5% of women have taken up senior manager and above roles.
