Celebration of International Women’s Day
March 13, 2018
Festejo por el DÃa Internacional de la Mujer | La Fabril
On March 8, in commemoration of the 108th Anniversary of the international celebration of women, La Fabril, as part of its policy of integration and equality, provided a tribute to its more than 500 female employees nationally.
From the early hours of the morning, the staff at the Social Work area delivered a gift to each female employee in the Company, reminding them of their importance to the Company and in particular to each of their households. This activity was carried out in the same manner at each of the 9 agencies nationwide.
International Women’s Day, celebrated in many countries around the world, forms a part of the historical struggle that women have had to endure in order to participate in society on equal terms with men for the restitution of their rights, for justice, peace, and the development of society at large. While there may be differences in nationality, culture, religion, language, economic, and political positions, women unite globally in a variety of ways to celebrate their Day.

Santiago Palacios, Head of Public Relations at La Fabril, indicated that “La Fabril is a reference point in equal participation and opportunities for women; an example of this statement is the joining by the Company in 2017 to the Business Pact in favor of gender equality in Ecuador, which aims to promote best practices and principles of overall equality and gender equality in particular”.
