Corticeira Amorim's employees are the main pillar of the company's success. One of the fundamental vectors of employee management is promotion of a safe and balanced environment, in physical, social and psychological terms.
Corticeira Amorim aims to ensure continuous respect for the occupational health and safety of its teams, promoting their professional and personal growth through training, while also guaranteeing equal rights and opportunities.
Fundamental principles of the Workers policies:
Valuing employees through training and development helps guarantee the success of the Company's sustainability strategy.
Investing in people means developing knowledge, skills and behaviour, in line with the company's objectives and values. The projects and activities implemented within the framework of staff training and development processes involve technical, behavioural and management aspects and are aimed at all segments: Executives, Managers, Operators, Interns, among others.
The promotion of a safety culture ensures a healthy, safe lifestyle with well-being at work. Corticeira Amorim considers that working conditions are one of the fundamental factors for the success of a Company.
As a way of guaranteeing adequate working conditions, the Company prioritizes adequate external certification of processes, considering it as a privileged means to guarantee that processes and structures are solid and sustainable in terms of safety and hygiene at work/social responsibility. In this sense, some establishments already have certification according to the international standards ISO 45001 or SA 8000.
Structural principles of our activity include dignity, non-discrimination, equal rights, safety, education, personal and professional development and freedom of association. The company's intervention in this field includes, inter alia, communication and awareness initiatives for these issues, attribution of corporate benefits, development of measures focused on achieving a balance between professional / family life and, more recently, on the implementation of a Gender Equality Plan.
