A female Bahraini intern has joined Y K Almoayyed & Sons, sole distributor of Nissan vehicles in Bahrain.
Asma Mohammed Ashfaq will be working as a car technician at Nissan Service Centre, Sitra.
Ms Ashfaq’s two-month internship will allow her to further her knowledge in diagnostics and automotive experience.
She is the company’s first female Bahraini intern; until recently, this job has traditionally been perceived as suitable only for men. However, times are changing and Ms Ashfaq’s joining is breaking the gender barrier.
“We are thrilled to welcome Asma to our team and to be part of her journey in the automotive industry,” said Nissan Bahrain service head Abraham John.
“We believe that diversity and inclusion are essential to the success of any organisation, and we are committed to providing opportunities for individuals of all backgrounds to pursue their passions and achieve their goals.”
Ms Ashfaq’s internship will provide her with hands-on experience in the field of automotive technology and diagnostics. A team of experienced technicians will work closely with her to ensure that she gains the skills and knowledge necessary to succeed in the industry.
Nissan Bahrain is committed to promoting diversity and inclusion in the workplace and providing equal opportunities for all. Ms Ashfaq’s presence on the company’s team will help to break down barriers and inspire other women to pursue careers in the automotive industry.
