International Women's Day 2025

International Women's day took place on Saturday 8 March 2025.

On this day, we recognise the contributions of our female colleagues, who represent 79% of our workforce.

There are resources available for managers to support women in their careers.

Managers should:

  • encourage staff to avail of the HSE development, training and coaching programmes
  • promote HSE supports
  • complete the Diversity, Equality and Inclusion (DEI) training on HSeLanD
