DALLAS, March 23, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Softtek, a global company dedicated to helping organizations evolve through digital technology, has been recognized with the Girl Scouts of the USA (GSUSA) Fair Play, Equal Pay® certification, acknowledging its commitment to gender parity.

Softtek is one of seven companies, including WTW and Zoom, certified by the GSUSA initiative. These organizations commit with a pledge to advance gender parity in their respective organizations and business sectors, helping to build an equitable future for girls.

"We are excited to team up with Girl Scouts to help contribute to making the workforce a fairer and more equitable environment," said Stephanie Moore, SVP of Marketing for Softtek in the US. "Our commitment to providing and advocating for opportunities for talent goes beyond gender.

This includes a partnership with a leading provider in online courses/training to reach more people. Furthermore, Softtek's Connect.Ada program focuses specifically on providing women with training to work in the fields of IT.

"Be prepared is the motto that Girl Scouts lives by, and through our Gender Parity Initiative, we are setting an example for preparedness for the future of the workforce.
