Equal opportunities
Euskaltel’s workforce is made up of 40% women and 60%
men.
The management of Euskaltel’s human team is based on
respecting human rights, by fostering equal opportunities,
facilitating the freedom of association and the right to
collective bargaining. Aware that its management strategies
and polices must be passed down in the value chain,
Euskaltel signed up to the Global Compact in 2003.
Euskaltel develops internal communication activities
in order to share the objectives and strategies among
everyone, along with fostering their pride of belonging. An
innovative and differentiating way that Euskaltel uses in its
internal communication are ‘
Breakfasts with the Chairman
’
(Cegos Award to the Best Practices in Human Resources
due to its innovation). In 2013, 21 breakfasts were held and
499 people attended. The employees had the opportunity
to spend time with the Chairman of the company to directly
raise their doubts and concerns, along with their challenges
and illusions. The new General Manager joined those
encounters in 2013.
The Internal Digital Magazine is another of the instruments
used to share information of interest related to the company
and to the different teams and individuals that conform it.
“Breakfast with the Chairman” were recognised as the best
human resources practices at the Cegos Awards.
