iSQI Proudly Joins the Women's Empowerment Principles (WEPs) Signatory List


This International Women's Day, iSQI is honored to announce our commitment to gender equality and women's empowerment by joining the prestigious Women's Empowerment Principles (WEPs) signatory list. A joint initiative by UN Women and the UN Global Compact, the WEPs provide a robust framework for businesses to advance gender equality in the workplace, marketplace, and community.

At iSQI, we believe in creating an inclusive environment that fosters diversity, innovation, and growth. By aligning with the WEPs, we are not only endorsing a global standard for gender equality but also integrating these principles into the core of our business operations. Our CEO, Stephan Goericke, fully endorses the WEPs signifying our highest-level of commitment to this cause and a pledge to work collaboratively in networks to promote practices that empower women.  

Our engagement with the WEPs aligns with our ongoing efforts to ensure equal pay for work of equal value, implement gender-responsive supply chain practices, and maintain a zero-tolerance policy to any form of gender discrimination in the workplace. We are excited to contribute to the WEPs' mission and to take actionable steps towards achieving the gender equality dimensions of the 2030 agenda and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.

Joining the WEPs is a pivotal moment for iSQI as we strive to lead by example and encourage other businesses to embrace gender equality as not only a fundamental human right but as a key to unlocking unparalleled business potential. Together, we can create a world where women are empowered, valued, and celebrated for their contributions in all sectors of society.

Let's work together to create a more equal and inclusive world.

Happy International Women's Day!
