Service Provider Partners With Women Back to Work
March 16, 2021
More than 2.5 million women have left the workplace since February of last year, according to the U.S. Labor Department. Many of these women had no choice other than leave their careers when the coronavirus pandemic closed schools and daycares.
Women Back to Work (WBW) provides a structured approach for these female professionals to return to the workforce after a break in their career. Contract service provider Sodexo has announced a partnership with the WBW initiative.
Sodexo has committed to assist in bridging the employment gap for women by providing access to apply for hundreds of open management opportunities. The company has targeted leadership roles in IT, marketing, finance, communications, and human resources as initial opportunities for participants of the WBW program.
“We are excited to continue our support of women,” said Stephanie Payne, Sodexo North America senior vice president of human resources. “We are proud to partner with Women Back to Work and help connect women looking to re-enter the workforce with available roles at Sodexo.”
