Design & MarketingTuesday the 8th of March is International Women’s Day and at HF we want to celebrate the event as a company who are are committed to creating an inclusive workplace that encourages all employees to reach their full potential.
As the International Women’s Day website says…Imagine a gender equal world. A world free of bias, stereotypes and discrimination. A world that’s diverse, equitable, and inclusive. A world where difference is valued and celebrated. Together we can forge women’s equality. Collectively we can all #BreakTheBias.
Today is all about celebrating women’s achievement, raising awareness against bias and taking action for equality.
HF is a family owned and managed company that has been providing electrical, mechanical, plumbing, heating, fire & security services throughout the UK. Our family culture is the core of our business. We consider all our employees as part of our family and an invaluable asset to our ongoing success.
We believe in the principle of equal opportunities and equal treatment for all employees and do not discriminate based on sex, race, pregnancy and maternity, marital or civil partnership status, gender reassignment, disability, religion or beliefs, age or sexual orientations. Our Equal Opportunities Policy aims to remove unfair and discriminatory practices and encourages full contributions from its diverse community.
We are fully committed to promoting gender diversity in the workforce to maximise innovation, creativity and competitiveness. It will take a number of years before we have an equal gender balance due to the current number of qualified female electricians but as part of our own endeavour to #breakthebias, we will continue to:
• Include women in shortlists for recruitment and promotion when applicants.
• Promote our Equal Opportunities Policy.
• Continue to remunerate employees doing comparable roles with comparable skills equally.
• Acknowledge the importance of diversity within our workforce.
• Not discriminate based on their sex, race, pregnancy and maternity, marital or civil partnership status, gender reassignment, disability, religion or beliefs, age or sexual orientations.
International Women’s Day is powered by the collective efforts of all. We sat down with four of the women in HF to ask them a series of questions related to the day in question. To read more, click the link below.
