In his assessment of the event held on the occasion of 8 March International Women's Day, Elazığ CCI Secretary General M.Mehmet Karabulut stated that, as a Chamber, they attach importance to participating in and supporting organisations they regard as social responsibility.

In his assessment, Karabulut said: “On the occasion of 8 March International Women's Day, we presented bouquets to the female employees of our Chamber on behalf of our President of the Assembly and Chairman of the Board of Directors. At the same time, our Chamber's Women Entrepreneurs Board carried out a series of visits to businesses managed by women. In addition, together with our Provincial Director of Trade Mr. Bilal Öztürk, we visited the Elazığ Women's Closed Penal Institution, celebrated women's day with both the female employees and the inmates and presented flowers. The programme, which was also accompanied by Prison Prosecutor Mr. Taner Karacaoğlu and Institution Director Mr. Osman Oğuz, was very nice and meaningful.

56 percent of our Chamber's staff are male and 44 percent are female employees. In our 2021 training programme, we also plan to carry out many events and organisations related to increasing the place of women in employment and encouraging their entrepreneurship. On the occasion of 8 March International Women's Day, I celebrate the day of all women.”
