Extending the breastfeeding period by three months

 

MCB Group is committed to promoting a work-life balance and the well-being of its employees. With this in mind, the breastfeeding period has been extended by three months, to a total of nine months after the birth of the child, instead of six months, as provided by law. These measures are in line with MCB Group’s decision to double paternity leave since 1 July 2021, by increasing it from five to ten days. The Group firmly believes that these new measures will accelerate the dynamics of gender equality. 

 

Celebrating women through our annual reports

 

At MCB, we believe that gender equality is a sine qua non condition for the lasting prosperity of any organisation or state. We know that globally, gender equity has been on the back burner for too long. We made the choice this year to shed light on these women who often contribute to the prosperity of our country in the shadows. This year, to illustrate our annual reports, whether of MCB Group, MCB Ltd or our Sustainability Report, we have chosen to highlight women from various backgrounds and professions in order to celebrate their contribution to economic life. This editorial choice, resolutely aimed at celebrating the Mauritian woman, was obvious.
