We recognize as an essential value of our corporate strategy to achieve gender equality and develop an inclusive organizational culture, to guarantee the competitiveness and sustainability of the business.

We want to communicate our commitment to meeting Sustainable Development Goal 5, as a reference framework to achieve gender equality in the company. 

Our commitment extends to all the interest groups of the company, and translates into the will to carry out significant, concrete actions of a transversal nature to the organization.

To this end, the company creates a favorable environment to promote gender equality in all company procedures, policies, procedures and practices, including those of this same body, and formulates an action plan for their implementation, as well as an evaluation, reporting and measurement system.

Our commitment extends to four fundamental areas, in which we assume specific and measurable objectives: 

Women in leadership

Products and services that benefit women and girls

3. Know the context and inequalities experienced by women and girls to develop products or services according to their needs, interests and expectations.

Equality in the value chain and advocacy practices

2. Collaborate with the community of the territory where the company operates to reduce the gender gap.
3. Collaborate, whenever possible, with key actors such as civil society, government and international organizations to promote gender equality. 

We are committed to maintaining an open dialogue with our staff, shareholders and other stakeholders to ensure that we continue to meet expectations and remain true to our values.

With our differences, together we succeed.
