Valore D – gender equality

How inclusive is your company? - engagement project for all companies that want to map and measure Diversity, Equity and Inclusion policies.

For Italgas Group, social sustainability is a key success factor and it is an increasingly important and prioritized issue for value creation.

According to the United Nations Global Compact, social sustainability in business is about identifying and managing business impacts, both positive and negative, on people within the company, in the supply chain, and in the community in which the company operates. Inclusive growth means reducing inequality of income and opportunity and promoting empowerment and equal opportunity.

To this end, we are committed to fostering a culture in which people recognize the value brought by diversity, and we are developing new programs and initiatives dedicated to inclusion in the most diverse meanings, not only for Group employees, but also towards our suppliers.

Thanks to the collaboration with ValoreD, the first Italian association that for over 10 years has been committed to spreading a culture of inclusion and gender equality, we are now offering you the compilation of the Inclusion Impact Index Plus, a free and digital tool, able to analyze inclusion in all its forms.

At the end of the self-assessment, a report will be released that summarizes your performance with respect to diversity, equity and inclusion issues and allows you to compare your results with the industry benchmark and the market. The Index allows a structured and measurable approach of the company on inclusion issues and it is a useful support to consciously start the process of certifying gender equality, introduced by Law 162/2021 in implementation of the NRP.

Thus, two training and awareness-raising meetings on the importance of social sustainability in business are planned, since positive impact on the community can be increased only by joining forces.
