ITC has identified diversity and inclusion (D&I) as a key priority area as it focuses on scaling up women participation - from recruitment to leadership roles. It has instituted a host of polices aimed at enabling an employee-friendly, progressive work culture that lends itself to creating an agile, compassionate and nimble organisation, Mr Amitav Mukherji, Head, Corporate Human Resources, ITC Ltd, told the Hindu BusinessLine.

"To address the initial challenges of sourcing women employees, we entered into partnerships with local vocational training institutes and we constructed programmes to develop the required skills. For all our new factories, we would like women majority workforce," Mr Mukherji said.
