 Home : EOWA Employer of Choice For Women : What is EOWA Employer of Choice For Women

The EOWA Employer of Choice for Women (EOCFW) citation is a prestigious acknowledgment by EOWA of organisations that are recognising and advancing women in the workplace.
 
In October 2001, EOWA announced an initial list of 55 organisations to be given the citation 'EOWA Employer of Choice for Women'. In 2012, this list has grown to 125 organisations.

Historically the EOCFW list of successful organisations is released on the EOWA website and highlighted in relevant EOWA materials, including our seasonal publications, annual report and at our workshops. Organisations awarded the 'EOWA Employer of Choice for Women' citation are invited to use the EOCFW logo in their recruitment advertising and other company promotional material.

The EOCFW citation has provided significant positioning in a competitive marketplace, particularly when an organisation seeks to attract the best possible talent.

EOWA Employer of Choice for Women organisations can use their EOCFW status and logo for a period of twelve months.
