On this Juneteenth holiday, we’re reminded of our past as a country and the important steps toward equality for all, recognizing the journey hasn’t been the same for everyone and their ancestors. Even more importantly, the work of equality and equity requires constant vigilance as the journey itself doesn’t have an end, rather, it remains a work in progress. At Siemens Government Technologies, we honor this significant day by reaffirming our commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion. As we reflect on the profound importance of Juneteenth, we continue to support initiatives that foster a culture of respect, understanding, and opportunity for all. Together, we strive to build a future where every individual is empowered to achieve their full potential. #SGT #Siemens #SiemensGovernmentTechnologies #Juneteenth #Equality #Diversity #DiversityAndInclusion #Equity #HistoryMatters

Equality, Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Resources Equality, Equity, Diversity and Inclusion are essential for good research practice and to support a positive research culture. We have compiled a list of resources to support knowledge in this area. Equality: Creating an environment for fair and just treatment of all members of society. Equity: An environment that creates fair and equal opportunities based on individual needs and circumstances Diversity: Creating an environment for including, representing, listening to, and enabling participation of people from different backgrounds and perspectives without judgement or stereotype. Accessibility: Creating an environment for supporting participation of individuals in all programs and activities.

Today, we join the global community in recognizing the invaluable contributions of women around the world. It is a day to celebrate achievements, raise awareness, and promote equality. At CF Energy, we're incredibly proud of the women who are an integral part of our team. From technology and sales to marketing, finance, and management. Your passion, dedication, and leadership ensure our success every day. On this special day, we would also like to mention the inspiring women who made significant achievements in the field of energy. Let's remember Lucia Galvani, the creator of the first closed energy flow conduction system; Herta Marks Ayrton, whose work on the electric arc led to advancements in urban lighting systems; and Edith Clarke, the author of the manual "Circuit Analysis of A-C Power Systems," a foundational text in energy engineering, and countless others that are fundamental pillars of our sector's history. Here's to breaking barriers, driving positive change, and illuminating the path ahead. Happy International Women's Day! 💜 #internationalwomensday #CFE #Equality #Diversity 

We’re proud of the many talented women across our business, who we’re celebrating today, International Women’s Day. One of our Process Engineers is Eleanor Humphreys, who believes that equality and diversity that respects everyone starts in the Boardroom. She says, “The atmosphere here is welcoming, and relaxed and fosters a good culture. If you make a mistake, you can own it and people help you rectify and understand it rather than laying blame, which helps you develop and learn. The company encourages employees to seek help and develop their skills and understanding, without expecting immediate mastery of a subject, which is reassuring and encouraging. There’s a good standard from the top down. If you walk into the Tech Centre without steel-toe-capped boots on, well, you just don’t. You have to walk on the correct walkways, you have to park the right way in the car park. There’s good humour about it if people get it wrong, everyone’s keen to make sure it’s safe here. It’s about caring too, there’s a genuine sense that no one wants anyone to get hurt. There’s a good ethos here for caring for everyone anyway, even before compliance”. #InspireInclusion #InternationalWomensDay #WomenInEngineering

"Equality is Greater than Division" Equality: "=" Greater than: ">" Division: "÷" At its core, this phrase emphasizes the belief that promoting equality among individuals, regardless of differences, is not only morally right but also essential for fostering a harmonious and prosperous community. Unity Over Division: Equality emphasizes the idea of treating everyone with equal dignity, and opportunity. It recognizes that despite our diverse backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives, we are all inherently equal in worth and value. Inclusivity and Diversity: Equality celebrates the richness of diversity and recognizes the unique contributions that each individual brings to the table. It affirms that every person deserves to be included, heard, and valued, regardless of their differences. In embracing equality, we create an environment where all voices are heard, perspectives are respected, and everyone has the opportunity to thrive. Fairness and Justice: Equality is closely linked to concepts of fairness and justice. It calls for the fair and equitable treatment of all individuals, without discrimination or prejudice. It demands that systems and institutions be designed to ensure that everyone has access to the same opportunities, resources, and rights. Strength in Unity: When we prioritize equality over division, we harness the collective strength of our communities. By coming together and embracing our shared humanity, we can overcome challenges, achieve common goals, and build a brighter future for ourselves and future generations. In essence, "equality is greater than division" reminds us that our differences should not be sources of division, but rather opportunities for connection, understanding, and collaboration. By upholding equality as a guiding principle in our interactions, policies, and institutions, we can build a more inclusive, equitable, and compassionate world for all.
