INTEC Joins the United Nations Women’s Empowerment Principles
We are proud and happy to announce that INTEC has taken a significant step in our commitment to gender equality by becoming a signatory to the United Nations Women’s Empowerment Principles (UN WEP’s) on 25.09.2024. We had previously announced that we were a UNGC signatory on 15.01.2024. These milestones reflect our company’s dedication to creating an inclusive and equitable environment and are very important to all of us.
The UN Women’s Empowerment Principles, created by UN Women and the UN Global Compact, provide a set of guidelines to help businesses promote gender equality and empower women in the workplace, marketplace, and society. These principles are:
- Leadership Promotes Gender Equality: Establish senior corporate leadership for gender equality.
- Equal Opportunity, Inclusion, and Non-Discrimination: Treat all women and men fairly in the workplace- respect and promote human rights and non-discrimination
- Health, Safety, and Freedom from Violence: Ensure the health, safety, and well-being of all women and men employees.
- Education and Training: Promote education, training, and professional development for women.
- Business Development, Supply Chain, and Marketing Practices: Implement business development, supply chain, and marketing practices that empower women
- Community Initiatives and Advocacy: Promote equality through community initiatives and advocacy.
- Measurement and Reporting: Measure and publicly communicate progress towards achieving gender equality.
INTEC is not only committing to these principles but also setting an example and benchmark for other organizations in our industry. The commitment is a testament to our belief that gender equality is not only a moral imperative but also a business imperative. Research consistently shows that companies with diverse leadership teams perform better financially and are more innovative.
Our commitment to action at INTEC:
- Inclusive Policies: Our policies are reviewed and revised in line with international standards to promote equal opportunities and non-discrimination.
- Community Engagement: We partner with local organizations to support community initiatives that empower women.
- Supporting Employees: We explore the motivational sources of each employee in an equal environment and create the appropriate environment and resources. By working with the Enneagram model, we increase the motivation and happiness levels of employees and strengthen their resilience and productivity.
We are committed to continuous improvement and will regularly measure and report on our progress. We believe and are proud that by working together, we can create a more inclusive and equitable world for everyone.
