“Collectively, each one of us can help create a gender equal world.”
This year’s campaign theme for International Women’s Day 2020 is #EachforEqual which encourages us to actively choose to challenge stereotypes, fight bias, broaden perceptions, improve situations and celebrate women’s achievements.
Equality is not a women’s issue, it’s a business issue. One the campaign’s key areas is to forge inclusive workplaces so women can thrive. At Transputec, we pride ourselves on our diverse teams and are committed to increasing the number of women represented across the business. We’re also supporting the next generation of talent through our apprentice program and mentoring schemes where we are actively encouraging more women to participate.
Outreach Programs
Recently Transputec was honoured at the CRN Women in Channel Awards for the Best Community Outreach Award for its digital literacy programme and dedicated IT training facility in west Bengal. The award recognised IT vendors that are attracting more young women into technology through their outreach programmes. Transputec made the final shortlist along with industry heavyweights, Cisco, Microsoft and Computacenter, who are also delivering transformational programmes to help pave the way for more women in IT.
Our Pledge
#EachForEqual, draws attention to the difference individuals can make. As we’re all responsible for our own thoughts and actions, we can actively choose to challenge bias and celebrate women’s achievements. That’s why we set up our own pledge wall for our employees to contribute and show their support.
