Narrowing the Gender Gap

We're committed to narrowing the gender gap here at Teva. After all, gender equality isn't only the right thing to do; it's necessary for our business to thrive. Over the last few years, we've implemented programs to promote gender equality, including coaching and mentoring to support women's professional development and company-wide education and learning activities. As a result, of such initiatives, our people have told us they've felt there have been improvements in inclusion & diversity.

Nadia Komyagina:
I think all of us, it doesn't matter what the gender, need to have similar opportunities.

Roberto Rocha:
My daughter is 25 years old, a young woman that's just staring her career, and I really would like to have her to receive the same opportunities that I had in my life as a man.

Elmar Kreutzer:
If me and my wife both continue in our career ambitions, we would both be able to take over the role of the breadwinner if necessary. In the long history of gender equality discussion s it was never emphasized enough that equality is not just a gift for women, but both genders benefit from it.

Mayra Avila:
Since a young age, I learned that I needed to be a pioneer.
I wanted to lead the change and to change the perception of people, to show that we women can achieve all the same things that everyone else can.

Nadia: Because I'm working for engineering, I can say we don't have enough women there.
What we've done in Teva in the last few years is to think how we can promote and support more women around the organization.

Elmar: I support initiatives which care about the equality transformation in Teva.

Roberto: As a group of leaders in Teva, I believe we put together a lot of good ideas that could support Teva to narrow the gender gap.

Nadia: It's like a snowball. It's starting from something small, and then it can get bigger.

Mayra: I'm very involved in order to lead change at Teva that will help elevate not only women, but minorities as well.
