The Embrace Difference Council’s Gender Equity Workstream focuses on the importance of driving meaningful change in female representation.
Led by Jade Hunter, HR Manager at Bacardi, the purpose of the Gender Equity Workstream is to advance gender equity by:
- Establishing a Gender Framework to ensure policies like flexible work arrangements and parental leave support equitable workplaces.
- Supporting the Inclusive Leadership Program to develop leaders who foster inclusive environments.
- Celebrating International Women's Day to highlight women's achievements and advocate for gender equality.
"Gender equity in our industry has come a long way, and this workstream gives us an opportunity to recognise that progress while staying focused on the work still ahead. What gives me confidence is the people around the table. Being part of these conversations and seeing the genuine commitment to creating a more equitable industry reinforces my belief that we can continue to make meaningful progress."
