Dear Rosemary, Greetings. At this present time, you may not have female employees. However, in the future, you might. It's always good to submit the same in advance so that you don't need to rush later if the need arises. It's just a simple process of filing an application, which your CA can help with. If you need any help filing the same, feel free to get in touch.
