Toprankers introduces new initiatives to boost diversity and inclusion

New Delhi : Many people with disabilities continue to face difficulties in finding employment, despite the marked improvement after the Rights of Persons with Disabilities Act, 2016 was enacted. Considering the same, Toprankers, India’s leading digital education platform has recently hired specially abled employees. Additionally, as a part of the employee welfare initiative for its female employees, Toprankers has announced a one-day menstrual leave every month for its full-time female employees across the country.

With these two initiatives in place, Toprankers aims to improve diversity and inclusivity in its workforce. The company has always believed in giving equal opportunity to all segments of society and has actively promoted diversity in its hiring practices.

Speaking about these new initiatives, Gaurav Goel, CEO & Co-Founder, Toprankers said, “The accelerated adoption of technology has brought a dramatic change in our society, hence enabling us to create a more accessible and inclusive environment. With the assistance of these technologies, we firmly believe that we can create a more healthy and growth-oriented environment at Toprankers for the members of the specially-abled community.

“Female workforce forms 48% of our entire employee strength. Our aim here is to extend support in the form of one-day leave to ensure that they prioritize their comfort during some tough days in their menstrual cycle. Additionally, we intend to remove subconscious biases and stigma for specially abled people and create a healthy work environment.” Abhas Landge, HR Manager, Toprankers added.”
