In honour of the IWD which falls on 8 March every year, the Group rolled out a string of activities to appreciate and empower its women employees. The IWD activities were kicked off with the sharing of inspiring stories of women employees from all levels on the intranet. Besides that, a virtual bazaar was also created where it allows women entrepreneurs from outside the company to promote and sell their products ranges from home-baked cakes to hand-painted bags to all employees.

 

On the 6 March 2020, all employees both men and women, were encouraged to wear the purple outfit as that is the internationally recognised colour to symbolise the IWD. On the same day, all women employees received a special gift as a token appreciation from the Group for their efforts; a Lavender handmade soap made by the Orang Asli mothers to support their children’s education and welfare.

 

As a closing of the IWD activities, a ‘Best Photo contest’ was also rolled out. Employees had a great time in unleashing their creativity in photography to try their luck for the prizes offered.
