Project description

Vietnam specific details:
The project will work with selected companies to develop gender-inclusive recruitment policies and practices to build gender diverse workforce and leadership. The project will also develop the business case for employer-supported care responsibilities, at both sector level and firm level, and support firms with customized solutions to improved childcare offers to employees.

The overarching goal of the project is to close employment gaps between men and women in priority sectors in
Vietnam (manufacturing, banking, and agribusinesses) by demonstrating the business case for firms to invest in
women's employment.

General program details:
Get2Equal partners with the private sector, research institutes, academia, governments and development partners to grow demand for gender-smart interventions. Through targeted studies the program seeks to understand binding constraints to more and better jobs for women and to test solutions through client engagement.

The project seeks to support companies in Myanmar and Vietnam with tools, experience and capacity to develop business solutions to close the gender gap. It concentrates on improving the capacity of business to attract female talent into sectors and jobs not traditionally held by women; retain female talent in the jobs including once they have children; and develop female talent into management positions.
