Join Us for an International Women's Day Tweet Chat!
/Please join Carrie on Sunday, March 8 for Mercer’s International Women’s Day Tweet Chat!
Topics We’ll Cover
Carrie will be discussing gender parity, diversity, and inclusion in the workplace, along with other topics related to this year’s International Women’s Day theme - Each for Equal.
Specific questions will include:
While some progress has been made with gender parity, much is left to be done. Why should companies make diversity & inclusion a priority?
What are the obstacles preventing greater workplace diversity, including non-gender based segments like age, race and ethnicity?
Why is it important for companies to publicly disclose their diversity & inclusion efforts?
What role do men play in the success of gender parity efforts?
Implementing a paid paternal and parental leave policy is seen as critical to advancing gender equality. Why?
What is the role of flexible working in a modern diversity & inclusion program, and how does it contribute to gender parity?
Why is helping women with health and financial wellness so important?
In response to this year’s International Women’s Day theme, #eachforequal, share one way you will help create a gender equal world?
