LGBTQ+ inclusion
In 2017, we were the first Italian company to sign up to the Standards of Conduct for Business of the UN High Commissioner Office for Human Rights, aimed at tackling discrimination in business, in order to respect and support to the rights of LGBTQ+ communities where companies operate.
