Human Rights Commitments
Procedures for compliance with the Human Rights Policy
We promote awareness of human rights in our area of action, supporting international incentives such as the United Nations Global Compact.
The company will analyse the primary factors of human rights to be considered in its operating areas, both at the national level and in the operations of the company itself.
The company’s employees are obliged to inform the company, confidentially and without fear of reprisals, of any failure to comply with the commitments outlined in this policy that they may observe.
Each year, we will define specific indicators that reflect putting the commitments in this policy into practice, as well as any controversies that may have arisen in the area of the different operating environments.
