Wednesday, March 8, is International Women’s Day, designated to globally celebrate women and their the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements. March is also Women’s History Month in the United States, set aside as a time to remember and honor women’s contributions throughout American history.

All month long, the women of ISSA, in partnership with the ISSA Hygieia Network, an ISSA Charities™ signature program dedicated to the advancement and retention of women in the cleaning industry, are showcasing how they #EmbraceEquity in the cleaning industry. Each day in March, we are featuring an ISSA female employee or ISSA Board or Council member giving their unique perspective on the impact of equity in the workplace and the cleaning industry.

“We are honored to be part of the International Women’s Day promotion of #EmbraceEquity,” said ISSA Director of Communications Jill Nuppenau. “As the worldwide cleaning industry association, it is important that we lead the way for the industry to provide fair practices of diversity, equity, and inclusion of everyone. We are excited to share all March long the important and insightful comments from the women of ISSA on how they embrace equity.”
