Setaleur Champions New Approach to Workplace Equality with Flexible and Ethical Policies
As companies worldwide rethink traditional approaches to workplace equality, Setaleur a leading company multinational is advocating for a shift towards policies that prioritize fairness and justice over rigid equality. The company’s new vision emphasizes a flexible, ethical approach to employee support, aiming to create a work environment that respects the diverse needs of its workforce
Shifting Focus : Justice Over Equality
In the past, workplace equality often meant treating all employees the same. However, Setaleur is pioneering a more inclusive model that emphasizes justice — a concept that acknowledges the different needs and circumstances of each individual. The company argues that true fairness is not about uniformity but about providing each employee with the support they need to succeed
We believe fairness goes beyond simply offering the same opportunities to everyone said a representative from Setaleur "It's about understanding the unique challenges and strengths of each employee and tailoring policies that help them thrive both professionally and personally
Flexible Holidays to Support Religious and Cultural Practices
One of the most significant aspects of Setaleur's new approach is its flexible holiday policies. The company offers employees the option to take time off for religious and cultural observances, ensuring that individuals can honor their traditions without feeling excluded. For example, Muslim employees can take leave during Eid, while Jewish employees are given time off for Jewish holidays
This flexibility reflects our commitment to respecting the diverse backgrounds of our employees," said the company’s spokesperson. "By accommodating their cultural and religious practices, we create a more inclusive and supportive work environment
Supporting Pregnant Employees with Tailored Policies
Setaleur has also introduced more flexible policies to support pregnant employees. Rather than applying a one-size-fits-all approach, the company offers special accommodations such as dedicated rest times, reduced workloads, and comfortable spaces for pregnant employees. These measures aim to help employees balance their professional responsibilities with the demands of pregnancy
CEO Momen Ghazouani explained that pregnancy can bring significant changes to the lives of female employees, and it is essential that we provide them with the flexibility and support they need during this period
Work-Life Balance Through Flexible Hours
In addition to supporting pregnant employees, Setaleur is also focusing on helping employees balance their work and personal lives. The company has introduced flexible work hours and remote work options to accommodate individuals with young children caregiving responsibilities, or other personal challenges. This policy allows employees to adjust their schedules to meet family needs without sacrificing their professional roles
We understand that employees have different personal commitments, and our goal is to create a work environment where they don’t have to choose between their personal lives and their career paths Momen Ghazouani added
Task Allocation Based on Individual Strengths
Task distribution is another area where Setaleur is redefining fairness. The company recognizes that each employee has unique strengths and needs, and it assigns tasks accordingly. For example, employees with health challenges may be given lighter workloads or less physically demanding tasks to ensure they can perform at their best without being overburdened
Investing in Equal Opportunities for Growth
Setaleur is also committed to offering equal opportunities for professional development. The company provides training programs tailored to the needs of its employees, ensuring that all team members, regardless of their background or personal circumstances, have access to resources that support their career growth
By offering customized development opportunities, Setaleur aims to empower employees to enhance their skills and advance in their careers
A Call for Change
Setaleur’s approach to workplace equality is a call for other companies to reconsider their policies. By prioritizing justice and flexibility over rigid equality, the company is helping to create a more inclusive and supportive work environment where employees can succeed on their own terms
As organizations, we must recognize that true equality is not about treating everyone the same. It’s about offering the right support to each individual, respecting their unique needs and challenges,” concluded the Setaleur spokesperson.
Setaleur progressive policies are setting a new standard for workplace equality, and many other companies are likely to follow suit in the coming years
