This week, Comparably — the global workplace culture and compensation monitoring site announced its first ever Best Global Company Culture list. I’m pleased to share that Elsevier ranked number 8. Other Top 10 companies included Adobe, Google, Microsoft and Facebook. As with Comparably’s Best Companies for Women and Best Companies for Diversity, which featured Elsevier in 2020, the awards are based on feedback from employees themselves. The ratings for Best Global Company Culture were compiled during the Covid-19 pandemic (March 2020 to March 2021). It's great that we feel well supported in areas such as work-life balance, leadership, and development opportunities at Elsevier at a time when we most needed a healthy company culture. Given that the awards are decided by employees themselves, it seems apt to share some of the comments we’ve received over the past 12 months about how it feels to be a part of this company ... #elsevier #discoverelsevier #elsevierlife #comparablyawards #myelsevier
Today is #AutismAwareness Day. Join us at Elsevier in recognition of people with autism and those who love and support them. Help spread kindness and autism awareness. It is a chance to #CelebrateDifferences and the creative minds of people with Autism Spectrum Disorders, and to renew our pledge to help them realize their great potential. An estimated 70% of those with disabilities experience a lack of understanding by others every day simply because they don’t look disabled. The Invisible Disabilities Association defines an invisible disability as “a physical, mental or neurological condition that is not visible from the outside, yet can limit or challenge a person’s movements, senses, or activities. Unfortunately, the very fact that these symptoms are invisible can lead to misunderstandings, false perceptions, and judgments.” To measure the success of our societies, we should examine how well those with different abilities, including persons with autism, are integrated as full and valued members. #ElsevierDiversity #diversity #autism #inclusion #DEI

Elsevier announces free special issue to support International Women’s Day 2021. Over 50 carefully selected journal articles and book chapters will be publicly accessible to raise awareness on issues of women and gender in health and science. Consisting of journal articles and book chapters supporting the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), this free resource is intended to further new research and raise awareness around this year’s International Women’s Day theme: “Women in Leadership: Achieving an equal future in a COVID-19 world” (#ChoosetoChallenge), pointing to the importance of every individual speaking up to challenge and call out gender bias and inequality.
Science and research are key drivers for positive global societal change. As a partner in the research ecosystem, we have a role to play in reducing inequalities: we do this as a founding and driving partner of Research4life, a UN-publisher partnership to bridge the digital divide providing free and low cost access to research in developing countries.
Happy International Women's Day from everyone at Elsevier. Today is a day to celebrate the achievements of women across the world, but also reflect on actions that are still needed to create a fair and gender-balanced society. The theme for this year is ‘choose to challenge’ because a challenged world is a healthier, wealthier and more harmonious world. At Elsevier, we celebrate the achievements of our phenomenal women, the enormous value they add to our organisation, and we also recognise other women in all walks of life, for their persistence and efforts to make the world a better place. On behalf of everyone in our organization, these Elsevier women are proud to strike the "Hand Up” pose to show that we #ChooseToChallenge gender bias and inequality now and beyond 2021. Happy International Women's Day to you. Join in within your community, organisation and network to help make the world a better place #IWD2021 #InternationalWomensDay #elsevierdiversity #elsevier #elsevierlife
