At Braskem and in the world, #TheyInspireTransformation. Now and always

They are mothers, wives, daughters, partners, friends, and professionals. Many times, they all unite into one and occupy their spaces with a lot of dedication, knowledge, skills, autonomy, and technique.

Braskem is committed to adopting inclusive actions that ensure equal opportunities for all people, and pays tribute to all women who contribute daily to the company’s growth. They act in areas and projects with mastery, involving the development of sustainable technologies, innovation projects, internal process improvements, discussions about equity and gender that move us forward.

At Braskem, women are the protagonists of their work, their stories, their choices, and also of the transformation they make every day for the future.

Throughout this month, we will share testimonials from members of our units around the world telling a bit about their trajectories and experiences, and how they inspire and work for our transformation.

See some of the testimonials below:

Roberta Paola Manzini (Brazil), Process Development and Modeling Leader- I&T Process Area

“Last year, I have completed 10 years at Braskem and I can say that I am very proud of having taken part of important milestones in the company during its trajectory, such as the construction of the LDTP, Process Technology Development Laboratory, which has state-of-the-art equipment, unique in Brazil, so that we can develop our own sustainable technologies. Moreover, today, as the leader of the Process Technology Development area, I am proud to be part of the company’s main innovation projects that seek to meet our decarbonization strategies, encompassing plastic chemical recycling projects, renewable raw materials, as well as what our industry will be in the future, based on a better future for our families. Being part of this construction is something to be really proud of.”

Michelle Sing (United States), Additive Manufacturing

“I get to collaborate with a global team of incredibly talented individuals in developing materials for 3D Printing. Braskem’s culture is very people-focused, everyone on the team has various roles and every day is a new challenge.”

Aline de Cassia Cruvinel (Brazil), Marketing & COMM (Regional)

“My day to day at Braskem is filled with dynamism and constant challenge. I learn a lot from everyone I relate to and I feel very happy, because I can always be myself! Braskem inspires me because it is always in transformation, in search of doing better, of evolving. I contribute so that we can relate and communicate with our strategic publics with assertiveness and positivity, in favor of our good image and reputation, including preventing and solving adverse situations.”

Olga Elizabeth Alfaro Romero (Mexico), BI Training

“After 8 years with Braskem Idesa, I can say that it has exceeded my expectations that, for me, it is the best place to work. I love that the growth of the company challenges me personally and professionally to make an impact on people’s development. Working in the P&O area has allowed me to contribute to the generation of work experiences that make me feel part of the achievement of each area and proudly show my family the products that are also a reflection of my efforts. One of the challenges I have enjoyed the most is sharing and understanding with the members how the company’s culture is more than just a “beautiful concept”, and finding in each example within our diversity that we the share pride in our work.”
