Women Workplace Index is the first and only certification regime dedicated to the women workplace representation and practices of listed companies and other employers in Asia. The Index provides a comprehensive platform for employers to disclose their women's workplace policies, practices and progress, and showcases achievements through Asia's largest publicly accessible database. Its certification covers listed companies and major employers across Asia and is based on a set of questionnaires covering 3 pillars, 16 topics and more than 40 indicators, assessing employers' practices through a combination of international standards and local regulations.

Yuexiu Property is firmly committed to gender equality and has put in place a series of policies to ensure that female employees are given equal opportunities in recruitment, promotion and career development. For example, the company adopts blind auditions in recruitment to minimise gender bias and ensure fairness in the selection process. In addition, Yuexiu Property provides employees with more flexible working arrangements and family support programmes, including child care services and temporary leave policies, to reduce the pressure of employees between family and work, and further increase the job satisfaction and well-being of female employees.

Looking ahead, Yuexiu Property will actively participate in and support women empowerment programmes in the community, organise and participate in women-related public welfare activities to raise the awareness of and support for gender equality in the community. At the same time, the company will incorporate the goals and achievements related to gender equality into the company’s annual report to demonstrate Yuexiu Property’s commitment to improving women's well-being in the workplace through practical actions. Yuexiu Property is committed to setting an example of ‘her’ power in the property industry and jointly promoting the sustainable progress of society.
