Gender Watch Ghana partners with a number of organisations to promote the principle of gender equality in the workplace. Every year, companies go through a reporting process on key interest indicators. Organisations work with Gender Watch Ghana to build gender equality strategy, set gender targets or address gender pay gaps. Small businesses in Ghana employ a large number of employees and face a unique set of issues when it comes to managing and improving gender equality in their workplace.

3. Gender Equality Index (AiGei)
AiGEI is Gender watch Ghana’s tool for public and policy advocacy for corporate gender policies.
The results of the GEI indicate which companies or institutions have earned any range of points on promoting Gender Equality. The GEI Badge of Honour is awarded to companies who are gender sensitive. This is to help the public support organisations which align with their values in order to patronize their goods or services.
