Ecom Express empowers women partners during festive delivery season

Ecom Express is making efforts to promote women in logistics during this busy festive shipping period. With increasing demand for timely deliveries, Ecom Express underscores the importance of its female delivery partners in the company’s pledge to support gender equality in the logistics industry.

Commenting on the ongoing festive operations, Swati Mor, Chief Human Resources Officer at Ecom Express, remarked, “This season symbolises resilience and strength. Our female delivery partners, along with in-office employees, are proving their excellence in this dynamic field. We are committed to supporting them by ensuring safe and empowering work environments where they can thrive.”

The achievements of individuals such as Mandengbam Kananbala Devi, who successfully delivered over 400 parcels within just three days, demonstrate the exceptional capabilities of women in logistics. Likewise, the inspiring journey of Surya T., who transitioned from a cashier to a delivery executive, showcases growth and ambition. With consistent support from her supervisors, Surya now completes between 100 and 130 deliveries daily, substantially enhancing her monthly income.

As of March 2024, women accounted for 5.93% of the overall workforce at Ecom Express, with approximately 10% holding key roles. The company’s commitment to fostering gender diversity extends beyond the festive period, reflecting its broader strategy to nurture an empowered and diverse workforce throughout the organisation.

With the festive season in full swing, Ecom Express continues to champion the contributions of its female delivery partners, underscoring the importance of inclusivity and diversity in driving innovation and progress within the logistics industry.
