  • The Gender Equality Seal for Private Entreprises in Uganda

    The Gender Equality Seal for Private Entreprises in Uganda. A certification program that enables businesses to increase productivity, profitability and partnerships through: Employee performance schemes that reduce gender-gaps at the work place. Innovations for gender-appropriate product design and customer services. Networking with global companies that support the sustainable development goals. What the Gender Equality Seal is about: The Gender Equality Seal (GES) promotes investment in systems that integrate gender equality into the work environment and business strategies. It is a learning and certification programme, supported by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), to help businesses achieve Gender Equality, which is Goal Five of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals. (SDGs). The SDGs (global goals), were signed up by world leaders in September 2015 at the United Nations General Assembly in New York. Private companies that get the Gender Equality Seal certification attain sustainable business growth, which in turn leads to sustainable development. Why getting the Seal is good for private companies: The Gender Equality Seal certification programme provides private companies a mechanism to level the playing field for both women and men at the work place. It also helps companies to make their human resource management systems equitable and more gender sensitive. Working to achieve the Gender Equality Seal helps management of private companies understand how their decisions affect female staff compared to male colleagues; how gender-pay-gaps come about and how to work out a work-life-balance for employees. ...Compliments Certification of Government Institutions. For Government, the Gender Equality Seal complements the Gender and Equity Certificate that is used to assess the gender responsiveness of sector plans and budgets, as provided for by the Public Finance Management Act (PFM 2014).
