Unilever introduces two policies for employees’ welfare

Unilever Bangladesh has introduced two more policies as part to build equitable workplaces for employees. 

Of the two, the Caregiver Service policy enables employees to avail a helping hand on-demand at a discounted cost to take care of their children, elders and ailing family members.

The other is on interchangeable public holidays, says a press release.

The fast moving consumer goods company's philosophy is to build a diverse and inclusive workplace that respects the dignity and worth of every employee so that they can proudly bring their full self to work.

"We are striving towards a workplace that will carry a profound sense of belonging that ensures everyone is treated fairly, has equal access to resources, and has equal opportunities," said CEO Zaved Akhtar.

Earlier this year two policies, namely "Prevention on Sexual Harassment" and "Support Survivors of Abuse", were introduced to protect employees from any form of harassment or bullying, whether individual or collective.
