WNS (Holdings) Limited (NYSE: WNS), a leading provider of global
Business Process Management (BPM) solutions, today announced that
it joins 483 other companies as a member of the 2023 Bloomberg
Gender-Equality Index (GEI). WNS has been included in the GEI for
the third consecutive year. The GEI is a modified market
capitalization-weighted index developed to gauge the performance of
public companies dedicated to reporting gender-related data. This
reference index measures gender equality across five pillars:
leadership & talent pipeline, equal pay & gender pay
parity, inclusive culture, anti-sexual harassment policies and
external brand.
WNS is included in the 2023 list for scoring above global
thresholds established by Bloomberg to reflect disclosure and the
achievement or adoption of best-in-class statistics and policies.
The 2023 GEI reaches globally to represent 45 countries and
regions, including firms headquartered in Luxembourg, Ecuador and
Kuwait for the first time. Member companies represent a variety of
sectors, including financials, technology and utilities, which
continue to have the highest company representation.
"WNS is proud to be included in the Bloomberg Gender-Equality
Index for the third year in a row. This recognition highlights our
ongoing ESG efforts including the creation of a workplace that is
gender diverse, equitable, and safe for all. In addition to the
ongoing talent management programs across WNS, the company
continues to invest additional resources in the upskilling,
mentoring, and leadership development of our female employees,"
said Keshav R. Murugesh, Group CEO, WNS.
WNS has introduced several specialized programs designed to
improve DEI at all levels of the organization. These include
CENTURION, a management training initiative focused on building a
sustainable pipeline of women leaders in the organization, and the
CEO’s Millennial Council (CMC) which provides high-potential
millennial employees the opportunity to work directly with the
executive management team and contribute their unique perspectives
to the direction and growth of the organization.
"Congratulations to the companies that are included in the 2023
GEI," said Peter T. Grauer, Chairman of Bloomberg and Founding
Chairman of the U.S. 30% Club. "We continue to see an increase in
both interest and membership globally, reflecting a shared goal of
transparency in gender-related metrics.”
