International Women’s Day: Spotlight on our female colleagues
International Women’s Day on 8 March draws public attention to many important societal issues.
These include equal rights and sustainability, two topics that are constantly in focus for good reasons. Climate change is having serious effects on our environment, and thus on economic and social development. Equal rights have extremely high priority at Komptech all the time, not just on International Women’s Day.
On 19 March 1911 around a million women from Germany, Austria, Denmark and Switzerland organized the first International Women’s Day. In 1975 the day was officially set as 8 March, and since then it has been an important day for promoting equal rights issues. In some countries it is even an official holiday.
We all have the right to be treated equally, regardless of our gender, our position at work – manager or worker – or our nationality. Those differences should not divide us.
