Venilla Periyasami and Bhuvaneshwari Krishnamoorthy are operators at ITC's FMCG plant in Trichy, Tamil Nadu. Both young women are enthusiastic, competent workers who clearly enjoy their jobs and the benefits they bring.
For Venilla, her work has let her fulfil her father's dream of owning a home and support her sister's education. Bhuvaneshwari says she feels a sense of community and safety at her workplace, because of the friendly, enabling environment.
For ITC, diversity and inclusion (D&I) is a key priority area, and the company is betting big on employing women across its factories. ITC focuses not only on women's representation, but also on their engagement with their work.
