Growing Livelihood Opportunities for Women
Roadmap to Gender Equity for Flexi-Staffing Companies
Flexi-staffing companies can implement 14 low-cost and low-effort interventions to become a reputed provider of a gender-diverse workforce
Why should Flexi-staffing (FS) companies aim to improve gender diversity?
Clients are hiring women within their organizations and have started mandating women in outsourced roles. Unless flexi-staffing companies start building their capabilities today, they will not be able to deliver on this upcoming demand.
Why do FS companies have low gender diversity today?
- Recruiters do not have the skills to hire women quickly
- Recruiters are not motivated to change practices to hire women
How can FS companies become more gender diverse?
- Reward and recognize recruiters: To increase recruiter motivation, start recognizing recruiters hiring women each month and offer a gift voucher to the top recruiter every month
- Build the organization’s capability:
