İstanbul Metropolitan Mayor Ekrem İmamoğlu has announced that women workers have started working at İstanbul Parking Enterprises (İSPARK) Inc., an affiliate of İstanbul Metropolitan Municipality.

Criticizing the lack of women workers at the company, Mayor İmamoğlu previously said, "What do you mean that the number of women workers at İSPARK is zero? I mean, zero... Interesting... Zero among 2 thousand 500 personnel of an institution. A great feat indeed..."

In a video shared on the social media accounts of İmamoğlu, the recently hired women workers of the company speak about their new job.

The video has been shared on Twitter with the message, "Women have always been in favor of keeping alive and reviving. Anything that women do has the blessing of their hands. Change has started at İSPARK, I wish success to our new fellow colleagues".
