To commemorate Bahraini Women’s Day, Aluminium Bahrain (Alba), the world’s largest smelter on one site, held a special event to honour its female employees on Bahraini Women’s Day (December 1). A global aluminium leader, Alba boasts one of the largest female workforces in Bahrain’s industrial sector.
The event, held at Alba’s Oasis Hall, was attended by CEO Ali Al Baqali as well as the senior management and officials from Supreme Council for Women led by its Director of Women Information Center Maha Sabt and members of local media outlets were among the distinguished guests at the celebration.
The celebration highlighted the significant contributions of Alba’s female workforce to Alba's success. With one of the largest female workforces in Bahrain’s industrial sector, Alba is committed to empowering women and providing them with opportunities for growth and development, it stated.
This dedication was shown by each female employee averaging 152 hours of training and development this year. Moreover, nearly 45% of Alba’s female workforce now holds supervisory or higher-level positions, said a company spokesman.
Through various initiatives and programs, Alba strives to create a supportive and inclusive work environment for all employees, regardless of gender, he noted.
Alba believes that empowering women is not only a moral responsibility but also a strategic imperative to drive innovation, productivity, and overall success, he added.-TradeArabia News Service
