Citibank Pakistan organised a 'Diversity Week' at its branches in Karachi, Hyderabad, Islamabad, Rawalpindi, Lahore, Gujranwala, Sialkot and Faisalabad as part of its ongoing commitment to fostering diversity within the bank.
While diversity is a cornerstone of Citi's employment practices, this is the first time that 40 countries throughout Citi's EMEA (Europe Middle East and Africa) region, including Pakistan, jointly sought to generate awareness on the importance of diversity in the workplace.
More than 700 employees and their families from across the country participated in 25 events ranging from parenting skills for young couples, bring your children to work day, the working-woman's-sponsor's day, networking bingo night, 'culinary contests' and 'cultural dress days'.
Pouruchisty Sidhwa Country HR Officer said that "We've also launched Citi Women and Co as an employee network working for the needs of female staff and are in the process of introducing Arabic classes for our staff by way of diversity of employee development".-PR
