SOIE Celebrates World Menstrual Day with an Educational Event and Sustainable Sanitary Pads Distribution in Partnership with Kamakhya With World Menstrual Day right around the corner, SOIE, a leading lingerie brand from Ginza Industries Ltd., in association with Kamakhya, a social enterprise dedicated to empowering women, hosted a menstrual hygiene educational event at its Surat Factory in Sachin. The event focused on raising awareness about menstrual hygiene and empowering women through informative and personalised sessions, along with the distribution of sustainable sanitary pads to a large chunk of their female workforce at the factory. The event featured informative sessions from Kamakhya experts, who provided valuable insights on menstrual hygiene and dispelled common myths, stigmas and stereotypes surrounding menstruation. Following the informative session, there was a Q&A period where women could ask the experts questions. SOIE, as a responsible brand and employer with 70% female workforce, additionally ensured opportunities for brief one-on-one discussions for a good number of their employees to address personal queries and concerns in regards to this subject. On this educational initiative, Amrit Sethia, VP at Ginza Industries Ltd., said, To build an inclusive and diverse culture, it is important to have a sensitive workforce that is aware of their rights and bodies and takes effort to educate themselves.

Hence, our initiatives are dedicated to making a mark in the lives of women’s communities, thereby contributing in a distinguished way to society. Our collaboration with Kamakhya for this educational event is not only a step towards addressing menstrual concerns but also empowering our female employees by creating a supportive work environment.
