"We are proud of this achievement and recognition by The Globe and Mail as we strive to support diversity, including gender diversity across the organization," stated Alan Hair, Great Panther's Chair and Interim CEO. "At Great Panther we support several initiatives focused on achieving diversity not only within the leadership team and Board of Directors, of which 50% and 43%, respectively, are women, but also at each one of our sites. We are committed to achieving gender parity, ensuring that salary compensation is valued by position with no difference between genders, and at Tucano we have set a target to achieve 25% female representation in the workforce by 2023. We are committed to these goals because we believe that diversity within our Company provides the perspectives, experiences and expertise needed to deliver the best results for our stakeholders."
