Jangro proudly announces certification as a Period Positive Workplace
We are proud to announce that Jangro has been certified as a Period Positive Workplace. This significant step demonstrates our commitment to fostering an inclusive and supportive work environment for all employees. By joining the global movement for menstrual equity, Jangro is not only enhancing our workplace culture but also contributing to a broader societal change.
Our decision to become a Period Positive Workplace is a natural extension of our core values and our position as a leader in the hygiene sector. As part of our commitment to Environmental Social Governance (ESG), this certification strengthens our efforts to drive meaningful change in our industry and beyond. It underscores the importance of addressing diverse employee needs with understanding and action.
What is a Period Positive Workplace?
A certified Period Positive Workplace is an organisation that actively supports gender equality by addressing menstrual health needs in the workplace.
At Jangro, we’re committed to creating a workplace that supports all employees. By providing free period products in our bathrooms, ensuring our facilities meet the highest standards of hygiene and accessibility as outlined by WHO, and openly communicate about this initiative to our colleagues, we’re taking concrete steps to break the stigma surrounding menstruation in the workplace.
Beyond adhering to these proactive measures, this certification is about creating a culture of understanding and support. By becoming a Period Positive Workplace, we positively contribute to a more inclusive work environment.
Jangro’s commitment to a Period Positive Workplace
By becoming a Period Positive Workplace, Jangro is helping raise awareness of a broader critical issue. Globally, over 800 million people menstruate daily, with over 80% of women experiencing reduced productivity during their cycles, losing an average of 9 workdays annually.
As a company that already supplies a wide range of hygiene products, we are well-positioned to tackle these issues. Our expertise in workplace hygiene solutions ensures our facilities meet the required standards. Our efforts to provide necessary products reflect our proactive approach to employee welfare and understanding of the diverse needs of our workforce – creating a workplace where every employee feels valued and supported.
Supporting employees and customers with our period-positive approach
Becoming a Period Positive Workplace positively impacts both employees and customers. For employees, it creates a more comfortable and supportive work environment, aligned with our values of equality and inclusivity.
For our customers, from those in healthcare facilities to the hospitality sector, this certification highlights our deep understanding of hygiene needs and strengthens our position as a trusted advisor in workplace hygiene solutions.
Jangro leads by example as a Period Positive Workplace
This certification marks a significant milestone for Jangro, aligning with our broader ESG policy and reinforcing our commitment to social responsibility. We are proud to join the global movement for menstrual equity and look forward to the positive impact this will have on our workforce. We encourage other businesses to consider becoming Period Positive Workplaces. As industry leaders, we believe it’s our responsibility to set an example and drive positive change.
