Reading, 8th March 2019: Award-winning casino supplier Realistic Games has lent its support to International Women’s Day with its own #balanceforbetter themed event.
Female employees of the Reading-based supplier, who now make up 25% per cent of the workforce, will meet this Friday to discuss the challenges facing women in today’s society.
They will also be encouraged to share their experiences of positive female role models who have influenced their lives and careers.
Commercial Manager Lauren Bradley said: “International Women’s Day is a great way for us as a company and as individuals to look at the broader issues of gender equality which currently exist within society.
“It is great opportunity for businesses as a whole to open up that conversation to their employees, particularly in an industry like ours which has historically been male-dominated.
“Fortunately, Realistic focuses on maintaining a healthy environment in which women can work without fear of discrimination and where the conditions are right for equal promotion.
“The gaming industry is a place where women can progress and flourish, and having these discussions is a great opportunity to create a universally positive impact across the industry.
“We are blessed with strong women working their way through challenging environments and I’m confident many of these women are now reaching positions of great influence, which will only help promote cultural change within organisations.”
Realistic recently appointed its 13th female employee, with new Gibraltar-based account manager Abigail Abudarham joining the team from Yggdrasil.
International Women’s Day celebrates the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women and marks a call to action for celebrating gender parity.
The first International Women’s Day was observed in 1909 and was taken up by a number of socialist and suffragist movements before being formerly adopted by the United Nations in 1975.
