MG-Unity in Diversity

Empower Women

In our changing times, work lives are moving towards more alternative occupations. People are selecting unconventional jobs. Women are making progressive career choices. MG Motor has always been at the forefront with regard to diversity in the workplace. MG Motor, a 100-year-old brand, has introduced many opportunities for diversification to empower women. They are also setting a record in the auto industry for a higher percentage of female employees in the workforce. With a workforce comprising around 3000 employees, they have achieved a 37% gender diversity within their workforce, the highest in the industry, and aim to attain 50% gender parity in the near future.

Equal Opportunity

MG Motor's plant in Halol employs enough women to provide accommodations in two hostels. The facilities are dedicated to providing safe, sanitized, and comfortable living spaces, ensuring our female employees' complete peace of mind and physical well-being. The offering helps enhance the diversity ratio and create a more robust ecosystem for the female workforce. During the hiring process for the Halol plant, MG forged inclusivity by inviting individuals of all genders to ensure equal opportunities to operate the heavy welding machines. The response was enthusiastic, with both women and men actively participating and showcasing their skills. The female candidates exhibited remarkable accuracy and precision in their work, highlighting their exceptional attention to detail. This observation affirmed the value of diversity in the workforce and demonstrated the unique strengths that women bring to traditionally male-dominated fields.
