Saipem believes in people's value, backgrounds, their leadership styles and conduct, because each individual has the potential to generate value for our company.
We work every day to create a work environment, in which people feel they are involved in the Group's future, by valuing diversity and encouraging an inclusive culture in a business with a very strong international focus.
Our success is always collective and therefore we invest in creating beneficial, transparent work environments, in which people and teams from different countries, genders and departments can collaborate and work together.
We enhance female empowerment through a pool of Saipem Role Models, capable of inspiring, motivating and guiding young students at schools and universities in their study and career choices, with particular attention to the development paths of STEM disciplines.
Saipem has always been committed to supporting people's values of diversity and inclusion. We are convinced that the actions we take to encourage the principle of correctness are a priority for the common good and we believe that giving voice to our people is of fundamental importance. I am very proud we have set up the Diversity and Inclusion Department as further confirmation of Saipem's commitment to guarantee equal opportunities, regardless of personal traits. There is a long road ahead, but I am sure that by combining our efforts, the results will be surprising.
Diversity is a treasure; the natural world enlightens us by revealing the existence of various forms of life.Diversity is also equity, not equality: we are all different, but with equal rights.Diversity is uniqueness: every person at Saipem has to be able to grow and improve. I believe we are all different in kind, but with equal opportunity to express and identify ourselves. The driving force of the Diversity and Inclusion Department, of which I am a member, is, therefore, to enhance individual differences and talents and show the extent to which Saipem is an inclusive company. I strongly believe the culture of differences is, and must be a bastion of radical, corporate change, in which diversities are NEVER seen as VALUE SUBTRACTED but ALWAYS as VALUE ADDED.
In November 2022, Saipem has issued the Group Policy on Diversity, Equality & Inclusion with the aim of formalizing the authentic and concrete commitment to promote and support a culture based on valuing diversity as a source of mutual enrichment, free from any form of discrimination as well as from cultural, organizational and material obstacles. The Policy also aims to disseminate the principles of inclusion and equity, promoting a collaborative work environment, developing corporate programs and processes focused on promoting equal opportunities.
