Help us move the needle on inclusion and gender equality in the Cayman workforce.

 

About Gender Equality Cayman. 

Gender Equality Cayman is a not-for-profit organization with a vision of greater gender equality in the workplace in the Cayman Islands. The underlying belief is that diversity, and gender equality in particular, are key metrics of highly productive, profitable and stable businesses.

Our mission is to develop, promote and distribute the tools that organizational leadership need to ensure equal opportunity at work.


What we do

  • Create opportunities to talk about diversity, presenting and helping to develop the business case for diversity and the benefits of diverse workplaces;

  • Propose targeted solutions to address workplace diversity in the Cayman Islands;

  • Support organizations to develop and implement diversity and inclusion policies;

  • Run training and development workshops to support leaders and HR professionals in understanding and addressing gender diversity and unconscious bias in their workplaces;

  • Consult with Government on policy to support a more gender diverse, inclusive workforce (we have been part of the group re-drafting the 2004 Gender Equality policy and we are meeting with key MLAs to discuss policy on Family leave).

  • Poll the workforce in the Cayman Islands by gathering data on the current state of gender diversity in a survey that will take place at least every two years (currently 2021, 2019 and 2017).

  • Provide a state of diversity in the Cayman workforce report based on survey findings.
