NaTran has also made strides in improving gender diversity within its workforce, increasing the proportion of women to 25.19% in 2024, up from 24.56% in 2023. This progress is the result of a proactive recruitment strategy in a highly competitive environment for gender-balanced hiring. The gender equality index has also risen sharply, with a score of 99/100 compared with 94/100 in 2023. NaTran continues to actively support gender diversity, notably through its Je suis de celles (I am one of them) campaign shared on social media, which gave a voice to eleven female employees from diverse backgrounds who are committed to promoting the feminisation of industrial and technical job-roles.
In January 2024, NaTran also joined the #StOpE initiative, which aims to combat everyday sexism in the workplace.
This initiative brings together a network of 270 committed organisations that share actions and best practices. This membership builds on NaTran’s ongoing efforts in training and awareness, which remained a key focus in 2024. The company hosted a conference titled “Can we still say/do anything at work?”, which drew nearly 300 employees, and provided specialized training to around thirty individuals. This group included the four new CSE/CSEC anti-sexism representatives, HR leaders, ethics officers and members of NaTran’s women’s network.
