Pfizer is acutely aware that the spread of the Covid-19 pandemic has entrenched workplace inequalities and that many women were struggling to juggle the roles of employee, spouse, parent and educator. In this respect, Nhlaniki said, it recently partnered with other major corporate players – Accenture, AECI, Aspen, Business Engage, Imperial, Nedbank and RMB – to host the third annual Voices for Change conference on August 7, which encouraged men and women to play leading roles on gender parity in the workplace. Notably, Pfizer's reach extends beyond its own orbit and the company has partnered with Unjani, an organisation that has established sustainable primary healthcare clinics throughout South Africa and empowered more than 58 female professional nurses, created jobs for more than of 200 people.
