Sando’s commitment to equality

The Sando Group’s commitment to equal opportunities governs the company’s business and governance model. It is reflected in the equality policies and plans approved and in force. In this way, equality acts as a cross-cutting pillar in the corporate sustainability strategy. It aligns the people management system with the contribution to SDG 5, “Gender Equality” of the United Nations, specifically target 5.c: “Adopt and strengthen sound policies and enforceable laws to promote gender equality and empowerment of all women and girls at all levels”.

As part of this strategy, the Sando Group has increased the number of women in the company by 5% in the last year, adding new female talent to a workforce that now numbers more than 2,000 employees.

Sando Construcción, which this year marks its 50th anniversary, aims, together with the rest of the business group, to achieve a balanced participation and representation of women in the company, in which there is no discrimination based on gender, race, ideology, physical or mental condition or social origin.

Throughout the year, the company develops various awareness programs, such as the ‘Women and Engineering’ project, together with the Royal Academy of Engineering, to promote the inclusion of women in STEM careers, or participates through the Sando Fundación in the promotion of women’s sports, such as with the Mairena Volleyball Club or the NovaCártama Table Tennis Club, among others.
