There is little information available with regard to how Heilan Group considers the fair representation of women in the workplace. The company’s chief financial officer is the only woman senior executive out of six (17%) and also the only woman on the nine-member board of directors (11%). No publicly available information was found regarding how Heilan Group promotes gender equality in leadership across its workplace or in the supply chain. Neither were details found on whether the company offers professional development programmes or equal promotion opportunities to its women employees.
In the supply chain, there is no information regarding how the company addresses the systemic discrimination that women face, for example by requiring suppliers to have a policy in place that explicitly protects pregnant and married women workers or creating an enabling environment for women to exercise their rights to freedom of association and collective bargaining. Neither is information disclosed concerning whether the company actively procures from women-owned businesses or takes specific actions to increase the procurement spend directed to these businesses.
