How Dutch companies can address gender equality in supply chains

Women Win’s brand Win-Win Strategies commissioned Equileap to assess 100 public companies listed in the Netherlands on their gender equality performance. The findings indicate:

• Two-thirds of the companies offer transparency on social supply chain topics, but very little data is available on how these companies approach gender equality in the supply chain.
• While Dutch companies are becoming more transparent and performing better on gender equality in their workforce, there is not much evidence that this is being extended to their supply chains.

In this article, Supraja Suresh analyses the Equileap findings and highlights ways in which Dutch companies can use this research to better their supply chain practices.
