RESPECTING HUMAN RIGHTS SEC 3 60 OUR INITIATIVES During the year under review, the GEWE supported gender equality and women empowerment by: RESPECTING HUMAN RIGHTS NEW INITIATIVES Following the analysis of the EES results, we have taken proactive steps by organising the Top Team Alignment Workshop and the EES Action Planning Workshop. These workshops aim to delve deeper into the findings of the EES and address any emerging issues effectively. Additionally, they aim to synchronise FGV’s culture with its overarching goals and translate this alignment into tangible success outcomes and expected behaviours. Furthermore, the action plans formulated during these workshops will be systematically implemented and closely monitored throughout the year 2024, with progress reviews scheduled on a quarterly basis. Collaboration with Malaysian Palm Oil Council (MPOC) for the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women A sexual harassment workshop was organised involving Malaysian palm oil companies to mobilise and accelerate collective efforts to combat sexual harassment at the workplace. The workshop was attended by 50 representatives from FGV and seven other palm oil companies in Malaysia. Among the topics it covered were relationships between gender, power dynamics, gender-based violence and addressing sexual harassment at the workplace. International Women’s Day A panel discussion was held on women empowerment and gender equality in the palm oil sector with LeadWomen, an advisory and training organisation for women empowerment at the workplace. The event was attended by 100 participants from various sectors including government agencies, corporate sectors, civil society organisations, UN agencies and the diplomatic corps. In conjunction with International Women’s Day, FGV also officially announced its commitment as a signatory to the WEPs to further champion women’s rights within its operations. Women in Leadership Programme The Women in Leadership Programme is designed and developed for female employees from the Manager and Senior Executive levels, who have the potential to be nurtured as future leaders. This is in line with the demand for more women in leadership positions, which have been proven to improve organisational performance and create positive impact on society. Initiatives by GEWE
