Happy International Women's Day! Wouldn't it be great if we could use today to take tangible action that *actually* supports women in the workplace? This could look like: ✅ Assessing pay equity in your org and closing the gender pay gap ✅ Offering paid maternity leave AND parental leave for non-birthing parents ✅ Instituting a teleflex policy to support working parents in working hours that work best for them (within reason of course) ✅ Setting up mentorship opportunities for women in your workplace ... what else, fam? #internationalwomensday2024 #internationalwomensday

Empowering Women in the Workplace: Overlooked Rights and How to Address Them💼 At Humm Care, we're committed to advocating for women's rights in the workplace. It's essential to recognize that many rights crucial to women's well-being are often overlooked or undervalued. From equal pay to reproductive health support, addressing these issues is vital for fostering a fair and inclusive work environment. Here are some common rights that women may find overlooked in the workplace, along with tips on how to deal with them: ● Equal Pay: Despite advancements, the gender pay gap persists. Women often earn less than their male counterparts for the same work. To address this, advocate for transparency in salary negotiations and push for equal pay policies within your organization. ● Maternity Rights: Maternity leave and accommodation for breastfeeding mothers are sometimes overlooked or insufficiently supported. Educate yourself on your rights under local labor laws and work with HR to ensure you receive adequate support during pregnancy and after childbirth. ● Career Advancement: Women may face barriers to career progression, including bias in hiring and promotion decisions. Seek out mentorship opportunities, build a strong professional network, and advocate for yourself by highlighting your achievements and skills. ● Workplace Harassment: Harassment and discrimination can create hostile work environments. Know your company's policies on harassment reporting and take action if you experience or witness inappropriate behavior. ● Access to Healthcare: Comprehensive healthcare coverage, including reproductive health services, is essential for women's well-being. Advocate for inclusive healthcare policies and support initiatives that prioritize women's health. By raising awareness of these overlooked rights and advocating for change, we can create more equitable workplaces where all employees can thrive. Let's work together to ensure that women's rights are respected and upheld in every workplace. #WomensRights #EqualityAtWork #InclusiveWorkplaces

In honor of International Women’s Day, we’re spotlighting a critical, yet often overlooked aspect of workplace equality: employee benefits. According to new research from Perceptyx, men are 1.5x more likely to report that they receive the benefits they need from their employer versus women. This gender gap has significant impacts for: - engagement - productivity - and job-seeking behavior. Women with the 3 core benefits identified in our research as the “Magic Trifecta” (medical, maternity, and mental health coverage) were: → 33% more likely to be fully engaged in their jobs than women who lacked access → 20% more likely to say their productivity and quality of work are up from last year  → 50% less likely to be looking for a job with better benefits. Read the full post, including our recommendations for actions that can help improve benefits equity for your organization here: https://lnkd.in/gzKb5tB2 #iwd2024 #InternationalWomensDay #DEIB #WorkplaceEquality #EmployeeBenefits #EmployeeEngagement

Last week we celebrated International Women’s Day, but what are the biggest challenges women face at work – and how can employers tackle them? Has women’s equality in the workplace been achieved? Most men seem to think so, with four in five (79 per cent) believing men and women are paid equally and just 11 per cent thinking they are paid more than women, according to new research by HiBob. In addition, only 17 per cent of men think they are promoted more quickly or often than women, the survey of 2,000 employees found. Statistics tell a different tale: the gender pay gap is currently at 14.3 per cent, meaning the average female employee effectively works unpaid for 52 days of the year, recent analysis by the Trades Union Congress (TUC) revealed. A third (33 per cent) of women were not promoted in pay, benefits or position in 2023, compared to a quarter (25 per cent) of men, HiBob’s research found. Some of the issues raised included: -Menopause remains unaccommodated -Stigma surrounding menstruation -Lack of support for working mothers -Pay and promotion gap Read the full article: https://lnkd.in/eCuy9XB4 For professional support and guidance on this topic, contact Schofield & Associates for professional advice. https://lnkd.in/gsBaBMH
