Sun Siyam Passikudah celebrates Women’s Day
View(s):Sun Siyam Resort in Passikudah celebrated International Women’s Day on 8 March with a heartfelt celebration honouring the invaluable contributions of its female colleagues. The day was filled with gratitude and festivities including a cake-cutting ceremony and conversations that highlighted the resort’s efforts to encourage female participation.
Despite women constituting well over half of the country’s population, their representation in the hospitality sector is below 10 percent which is disproportionately low when compared to the women making up over half of the entire hospitality workforce globally.
This disparity is often attributed to social stigmas, safety concerns, and traditional gender roles that discourage women from pursuing careers in hospitality. Addressing these challenges, Sun Siyam Passikudah has implemented targeted initiatives to create a more inclusive environment.
The resort actively recruits women from local communities, offers comprehensive training, and provides a supportive and safe working environment. By doing so, the resort not only enhances the professional growth of its female employees but also contributes to the socio-economic development of the Eastern region.
“At Sun Siyam Pasikudah, diversity and inclusion are at the heart of our success. We value the unique perspectives and talents our female team members bring, enriching guest experiences and strengthening community ties. Committed to equal opportunities, we foster a culture where everyone can thrive,” said Arshed Refai, General Manager.
