In view of International Women’s Day 2017 the programme ‘You’ was organized by Laugfs Eco Sri Pvt Ltd, in recognition of the contribution made by female staff in the organization. 
With the launch of this program, the company demonstrated its continued commitment towards gender equality as well as recognition and appreciation of diversity within the workplace. The theme of ‘You’ 2017 was ‘Empower your inner soul’ which encourages women to develop their strength, character and capability that supports an empowered status in society.
There are 760 employees at Laugfs Eco Sri as at today and 120 of the total number are females. Majority of them are employed as data entry operators, some as technicians and the remainder work at the head office. The strong female employee presence at Laugfs Eco Sri Pvt Ltd, continues to power the company to great heights. These female employees play a pivotal role in day to day operations, supporting the technical team in the process of vehicle emission testing which is a nation-wide air quality management program run in joint collaboration with the government and appointed testing entities. Majority of Eco Sri female employees are therefore located at direct contact points of the customer. Meanwhile, those at the head office handle back office operations, and provide their unwavering support to the company’s growth and success. The programme ‘You’ was organized with the intention of empowering these employees so that they would be able to withstand the challenges that they encounter at work as well as in their personal lives. The program also presented the opportunity to appreciate the continuous dedication and contribution these employees make towards a cleaner, safer and greener tomorrow with Laugfs Eco Sri.
