Stellantis says its remote work policy boosted ranks of women in top jobs
BNN Bloomberg
Remote and hybrid work options don’t just keep workers happy, they also help attract and retain female talent.
Stellantis NV’s chief human resources and transformation officer Xavier Chereau said in an interview Wednesday that the company’s work from home policy has helped the automaker boost the number of women in its ranks, particularly at the top.
As of December, women held 27 per cent of leadership positions at Stellantis, up from 24 per cent a year earlier. The company has said it hopes to have women in 30 per cent of its leadership positions by 2025. Four of its 14 car brands are run by female chief executive officers, including Peugeot and Chrysler.
Elsewhere, companies are losing senior level women due to burnout and child care burdens. Recent high-profile resignations include YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki and Meta Platforms Inc. Chief Business Officer Marne Levine.
