In Italy, numbers and percentages speak for themselves: the Gender Gap to be bridged is evident and there is still a long way to go.
To give a boost to Gender Balance, a number of Guidelines have been defined – contained in UNI/PdR 125:2022 – which provide for the adoption of specific KPIs aimed at encouraging equal opportunity policies. Italian companies that know how to spread and support the values of inclusion, equity, equality and diversity will be able to obtain the Gender Equality Certification and benefit from numerous advantages.
PRAXI Academy proposes an orientation training for the Gender Equality Certification, providing all the experience gained on DE&I projects to accompany companies in this cultural change.
