This way, we develop actions for those joining in, to ensure diverse human characteristics, and internally, with actions that value these differences and create an even more inclusive environment. Developing a D&I program is a journey. And to do that sustainably, over the past few years, we have focused on two main areas: Gender and Disabled People. Reflecting the growth of our agenda, in 2022 we included the Race/Ethnicity theme, in addition to valuing differences and intersectionality.
Our goal is that the diversity actions we have boosted over the past few years continue to gain momentum.
See below some of our initiatives:
Educating and raising awareness among our Executive Committee and leadership
Educating our employees on diversity and inclusion issues
Creating a debate group to discuss diversity and inclusion among the Wood Division’s employees
