Women's Empowerment Principles (WEPs)
To help us reach our goals, we signed the Women’s Empowerment Principles (WEPs) in December 2022. Consequently, we use the WEPs as a framework for future strategic work with gender equality. Moreover, the WEPs are informed by international labor and human rights standards.
They recognize that businesses have both a stake in and responsibility for gender equality and women’s empowerment. Additionally, the WEPs include a Gender Gap tool used to measure progress and initiatives within gender equality. We aim to elevate our WEP score, and in 2023, we moved from beginners to improvers. Thus, we demonstrated clear progress in our gender equality efforts.
We value the importance of diversity in our working environment. Furthermore, we support all genders in opportunities and career goals and maintain zero tolerance for gender discrimination. We also encourage employees to act with kindness and promote an inclusive culture. Consequently, we help prevent adverse impacts on their own or others’ human rights.
