Human Rights

Environment

4. Undertake initiatives to promote greater environmental responsibility ; and

5. Encourage the development and diffusion of environmentally friendly technologies.

Labour

Our Ecovadis-evaluation

Gender Equality

Egapro index

At Altares, we prevent any kind of discrimination by setting up different plans, such as the Index Egapro that focuses on the equality of salaries between men and women. This tool helps us to transparently expose any pay differences between men and women in similar positions, leading to a corrective action plan. Altares achieved a score of 88/100 in its assessment and we continue our improvement actions.

Diversity

Altares D&B is signatory of The Diversity Charter. This is a commitment proposed by any employer who wishes, through a proactive approach, to act in favor of diversity and thus go beyond the legal and legal framework of the fight against discrimination.

In partnership with a French association called No Plastic in My Sea, supported by the Minister of Ecological Transition in France, Altares D&B engaged in the #NoPlasticChallenge.
