You Are Not Alone – Meridianbet Has Strong Message for All Women Victims of Violence
Open space, street, workplace, personal space…
Four out of every five women have been harassed on the street. Sexual or physical violence affects one out of every three women. One in every five has experienced online violence whereas 50% of women have experienced some form of sexual harassment at work! Violence against women manifests itself in a variety of ways and forms, not just physical one.
Stop violence against women!
Meridianbet has been working for years to bring attention to this issue and raise awareness of the need to combat violence against women and does not speak of the problem only when it escalates.
The Company has demonstrated its determination to actively participate as a socially responsible company for more than two decades, highlighting the importance of gender equality, economic empowerment of women, and zero tolerance for any form of violence or discrimination through its own example and business model.
Ladies in Charge at Meridianbet
As a predominantly tech company, we want to be the talent hub and employer of choice for all, regardless of who they are.
Women account for more than 55% of Meridianbet top management, which well exceeds the most advanced DE&I metrics. This number is even higher in African and European markets, with female management amounting to 62% and 56% respectively.
Ladies are proportionally represented in all business segments – HR, marketing, retail network, and software development, thus showing no gender equality is possible without the economic empowerment of women.
This UN slogan, referring to “Gender Equality Today for a Sustainable Future Tomorrow” is an every-day practice at Meridianbet.
On the occasion of the International Day Against Violence Against Women, the Company reminds that solving this delicate problem must be a priority not only in the work of state authorities, but also in the business environment, which has a significant influence in promoting true cultural values, tolerance, and respect.
The Istanbul Convention combats violence against women by preventing it, protecting victims, and prosecuting those who commit it.
Violence has no justification. You are not alone, report it!
