"The IPCM Maritime Srikandi Program is not just a symbol, but a concrete action by the company to create equal opportunities for women to develop and contribute in strategic sectors. We believe that diversity will strengthen the company's performance and competitiveness," she said.
The launch of this program also aligns with the company's efforts to support the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly in aspects 5, namely gender equality, 8, decent work and economic growth, and 10, reducing inequality. Through this program, IPCM not only promotes women's empowerment but also ensures the creation of equitable employment opportunities, improves human resource competencies, and contributes to inclusive economic development.
The Chairperson of WIMA INA, Chandra Motik, expressed his appreciation for the progressive steps taken by IPCM through the Srikandi Maritim program. "IPCM's steps are a concrete example of how the maritime industry is starting to open wider spaces for women. The presence of Srikandi Maritim not only strengthens gender equality but also proves that women have the competence and resilience to contribute directly in a sector that has been dominated by men. We hope this initiative can inspire other industry players to promote inclusivity and diversity in the Indonesian maritime sector," said Chandra Motik.
