Procter & Gamble Wins 2023 Supply Chain Award

Equality and Inclusion: Goa Plant “Saksham”

Congratulations to Procter & Gamble, winner of the 2023 Supply Chain Award for People Breakthrough.

P&G aimed to hire female shop floor trainees at its Goa plant to recognize them as “saksham” – the Hindi word meaning “capable; competent”. This initiative pushed P&G to innovate by working with external government agencies, creating new talent management programs and reimagining operating strategies. Thanks to the “saksham” initiative, gender diversity at the site among trainees doubled from 7% to 15% within six months.
