September 15 to October 15 is Hispanic Heritage Month. This is a good opportunity to reflect on the progress Latinas have made in the workplace. Compared to previous generations, today’s Latinas tend to be more educated, empowered, independent and comfortable putting themselves at the center of life decisions.
Nowhere is this more evident than in the workplace, where Latinas are making extraordinary advancements.

Hispanics are one of the largest, fastest growing and youngest minority populations in the United States. However, Hispanics are also one of the most underrepresented minority groups when looking at STEM careers and education. According to the US Department of Education, “less than 2 percent of the STEM workforce is Hispanic while almost 20 percent of the country’s youth population is Hispanic”.

September happens to be a unique month for Latinos. The 15th marks the anniversary of independence of five Latin American countries: Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, and Nicaragua. Mexico and Chile also celebrate their independence in September, the 16th and the 18th respectively. It’s of no surprise why September 15th kicks off National Hispanic Heritage Month.
DALLAS, September 17, 2014 /3BL Media/ —Southwest Airlines (NYSE: LUV) recognizes Hispanic heritage and culture this month as a part of Hispanic Heritage Month. Southwest partners with the Latino community to show its passion for diversity and inclusion; to highlight those efforts, the Company proudly sponsors events throughout the year geared toward the Hispanic community.
What an appropriate way to cap off the end of Hispanic Heritage Month with the Hispanic Scholarship Fund (HSF) Alumni Hall of Fame Gala in New York City. This was my second time attending the event, and I wanted to bring some of my team from our area restaurants so they could see the real-life impact that HSF is having on individuals and families across the country. I also wanted them to see how Darden is supporting this work through scholarships that will enable students to pursue their academic and professional goals.
