As a consequence of the work initiated by ILO with the slogan “Gender equality starts with language; equality in language is the first step towards gender equality at KARSAN and in the world of work”, the “Positive Equality” logo is now being used on all corporate promotional materials (notebooks, calendars, pads etc.) and in all internal and external communication channels and announcements (such as vacancy announcements).
To create awareness of gender equality on the part of employees, the “Positive Equality” logo has also been placed on the kiosks that display menus at the mess hall, and a feminine figure has been placed next to the masculine figure on the visual warning for occupational safety and health at the organisation.
