International Women's Day 2024

International Women's Day celebrates the progress made by women around the world.

The CLN Group is strongly committed to increasing the percentage of female employees and creating a work environment that respects gender equality.

Among the various initiatives that the Companies carry out throughout the year, we have selected some to celebrate this important day and to thank all our female colleagues for their commitment.

 

MAAP – MA Automotive Portugal

The Company elected a Portuguese woman who had a very important role in gender equality.

MAAP celebrates International Women's Day every year, highlighting the role that our women play in the world of work and society. Female representation in MAAP is very high, which highlights the importance that women have in the workforce. To celebrate this day, MAAP prepares a short text that is displayed on screens in common spaces and offers a flower that expresses the affection and respect that MAAP has for all our women.

 

C.L.N. SLOVAKIA S.R.O.

To all women – female employees, who have decided to take care of their children at home up to the age of 3 years old, and would like to work at least part-time and further develop their expertise, the Company is trying to modify their working conditions accordingly, if the job position allows it.

 

MW Romania S.A.

In Drăgășani - Romania, the arrival of Spring is celebrated with a lot of enthusiasm.

On the 1st of March, a very old and beautiful tradition called Mărțișor takes place. This tradition involves the exchange of small tokens, often in the form of gifts tied with red and white strings, between men and women. They are a symbol for love, respect, and well wishes for the entire Spring season.

And the good news are that the celebration doesn’t end here! On 8th of March, is the International Woman’s Day. This time, Romanian girls and women receive flowers and symbolic tokens as a sign of appreciation.

The women from the organization are very important to us. They have a key role in the manufacturing process, basically a lot of our premium wheels are made by them. Some others produce organizational transformation & grow. They are extraordinary business partners when they are in leadership positions, and some are literally ambassadors of the Safety culture spreading around the CARE for their colleagues, husbands, lovers, friends, children. They support us in key functions and roles to drive performance in our business.

Here at MW Romania we have a long tradition in coordinating several events and activities dedicated to them on these special days of March 1 and 8: workshop, speeches, greeting cards, gifts and celebration.
