With the commitment to improve lives of its employees, especially the females, Brandix plans to extend GAP’s Personal and Career Enhancement (P.A.C.E.) programme for its female workers. The programme provides workers with foundational skills, technical training and support to help them advance in the workplace and in their personal lives.
Ranked among the ‘Top 5 Employer Brands’ of the country, Brandix is always looking ahead to support its workers. “Female operators participate in the programme which is divided into eight modules of life skills education including communication skills, problem-solving, time and stress management, health and nutrition, financial literacy and gender equality. Research has shown that such workers get faster promotions than those who do not participate,” said Anusha Alles, Head of CSR for the Group.
In another development, the company has raised the eco bar standards and pledged to reduce its environmental footprint further by 20 per cent by year 2020. Using 2013 as the base year, Brandix will make further investments in processes and innovations, progressively reducing the impact of its operations on the environment, aiming for a further 20 per cent reduction of the Brandix Eco Index over the next seven years, said Brandix Director AJ Johnpillai.
