该电信集团表示，新政策将特别有利于Telenor的亚洲市场，包括印度。欧洲目前的做法，与新提出的倡议相当或更高，将继续下去。
“这是为了加强Telenor在我们运营的市场上的竞争力。我们知道，多元化的员工队伍能够推动创新和更好的业绩。Telenor集团总裁兼首席执行官表示:“为了确保我们的组织更好地反映我们所生活的世界，为了吸引、留住和培养女性领导人才，我们将为我们在任何地方运营的员工制定至少六个月的带薪产假标准。”Sigve布莱克．
“这将代表泰国和印度等市场的显著差异，在这些市场，当地法规只要求三个月的产假。无论从社会还是商业角度来看，我们都认为这是一个高度战略性的举措。”
新政策将于2016年1月1日起生效。Telenor全球3.3万名员工中约36%为女性。该公司表示，此举符合公司鼓励多元化、培养更多女性商界和社会领导力的愿景。“这一决定代表着在为电信员工创造公平的工作与生活平衡方面向前迈出了一大步行业该公司在一份声明中说。

The telecom group said that the new policy will particularly benefit Telenor\u2019s Asian markets, including India. The current practices in Europe, on par or above the newly proposed initiative, will be continued.
\u201cThis is about strengthening Telenor\u2019s competitiveness in the markets where we operate. We know that a diverse workforce drives innovation and better performance. With the goal of ensuring that our organization better reflects the world we live in, and in order to attract, retain, and develop female leadership talent, we are instituting a minimum six-month paid maternity leave as standard for our employees everywhere we operate,\u201d said President and CEO of Telenor Group, Sigve Brekke<\/a>.
<\/div><\/div>In Telenor\u2019s Asia operations, with the exception of Bangladesh, female employees are currently entitled to less than six months of funded maternity leave per local regulations and personnel practices. As a result, women may decide to leave the workforce to have children, and as internal Telenor surveys reveal, some may not return, resulting in lost leadership opportunities and cost from staff turnover.
\u201cThis will represent a significant difference in markets such as Thailand and India, where local regulations require only three months of maternity leave. We consider it a highly strategic move, both from a societal and a business perspective,\u201d Brekke said.
The new policy will take effect from January 1, 2016. Approximately 36% of Telenor\u2019s global workforce of 33,000 people is women. The company said that the move is in line with a corporate vision of encouraging diversity and developing more female leadership in business and society. \u201cThe decision represents a major step forward in creating an equitable work-life balance for employees within the telecommunications industry<\/a>, the company said in a statement.
