ESG: SOCIAL - DEI
Committed to diverse talents and inclusive environments
At Fertiberia, we believe that talent knows no gender, age, style, thinking or any other variable. Our duty and our responsibility is to create an environment in which each and every person feels part of it: talent has no labels.
A SHARED COMMITMENT FOR THE WHOLE GROUP
What the DEI principles are for Fertiberia
At Fertiberia, we believe in a culture of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion that places people at the centre of our business strategy, driven first-hand by the group's Senior Management.
Diversity
We create diverse work spaces, valuing and promoting the coexistence of different skills, training, origin, culture, gender, abilities, etc. For Fertiberia, talent has no labels, and we firmly believe that diversity is a competitive advantage. That is why we work to ensure that our corporate culture is fully aligned with the goals set by the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 5, 8 and 10, which revolve around Diversity in its multiple approaches (gender, generational, emotional, cultural and functional).
Inclusion
We work every day to ensure that our staff, in all their diversity, feel included, respected and valued, so that they can contribute their best every day to the shared project that is our group.
Equity
We understand this term to be much more inclusive than "equality". We know that we are not equal, but we must all be treated equitably. This means recognising the uniqueness of each person in order to offer the same number and type of opportunities so that our differences are never an obstacle to our growth in the company and in society in general.
Our values
Values and principles that guide us in our DEI strategy
We work on the basis of efficiency, commitment, responsibility, excellence, safety, innovation, integrity and trust.
These values determine the way we act and have also guided us in developing our DEI strategy.
The ability to generate a desired effect, a positive change in our environment and in our customers, is only possible if we have different points of view that allow us to discover and develop new solutions.
Our group is currently made up of more than 1,600 committed professionals who are fully aware of the value that stems from our own diversity in building a more sustainable future.
We strive for excellence and innovation in everything we do, always looking out for the safety of our staff, customers and all those who interact with us.
Our principles of integrity and trust enable us to act accordingly, following the company's principles and values.
