Promoting ‘Women Empowerment’ is at the core of BUSINESSNEXT’s mission.
The company has notably implemented various measures aimed at supporting its female workforce and creating an environment where they can thrive. Initiatives such as flexible work arrangements, leadership development programs, strong support for women returning after maternity leave have contributed to building a supportive and inclusive environment, and employee wellness initiatives that address multiple aspects of well-being, helped the company secure the 2nd runner-up trophy.
Building on this accolade, the company is taking its commitment to gender equality to new heights. Currently, 20% of leadership roles at BUSINESSNEXT are held by women directly reporting to the CEO, a number that the company plans to grow as part of its broader strategy to create an inclusive and thriving workplace.
“This award is not just an honor; it is a testament to dedication and commitment to championing gender diversity and empowering women at BUSINESSNEXT,” said Lipika Mohanty, Director of People and Development at BUSINESSNEXT.
While sharing her excitement, she further added, “Our recognition as the “best employer for women” is not just a milestone, It is woven into the very fabric of our core values and is a fundamental part of our organisational DNA. We believe that a diverse and inclusive workplace drives, innovation and success. Our strategic focus on inclusive leadership and career advancement for women will guide us as we set new benchmark for workplace equality in the years to come. With this recognition, we are excited to expand our initiatives and further integrate the principles of inclusivity and equity into our everyday practises.”
Over the years, BUSINESSNEXT has continuously strengthened its commitment to promoting diversity and inclusion. In 2023, it was honored with the “Best Organization for Women” award by The Economic Times. Additionally, cultivating an inclusive workplace has earned it the title of ‘Most Preferred Workplace’ for two consecutive years (2023-2024 and 2024-2025) by India Today in collaboration with Marksmen Daily.
