“Diversity and inclusion should not only be a phrase on a piece of paper, it’s a mindset and should be lived actively every day,” said Claudia Marshall, Ikea distribution area manager, Northern Europe.
There has been a growing awareness on Diversity in Indian Corporates initiatives on hiring is gradually turning into key focus for onboarding. The pressure to advocate equality of the gender in terms of opportunity, career advancement, remuneration is constantly on the management for having a diversified workforce.
India Inc is working hard to improve the gender diversity equation, especially at the top deck. Big giants like Mahindra & Mahindra and Vedanta are scouting for female talent for filling up leadership roles. Recruitment agencies and Consultants are scampering to meet the representation of female hires. Various hiring drives are being taken up by organisations
Online automobile marketplace Droom currently has 100 management vacancies, of which the company wants 60% to be filled by women, chief executive Sandeep Aggarwal said. Diversity remains a hot topic in the recruitment domain since last few years.
For an organization to remove any gender bias & encourage inclusion it is important that all employees feel equally valued and are paid in line with their performance & not their gender
