We achieve gender equality through the encouragement of equal job opportunities for women in a varied staff. We have established an equality plan and we are proud of having 50% of women in executive positions. Altogether, we have more than 40% of women in our staff with the purpose of improving it every year. We truly believe that academic training in occupations historically performed by men, such as science and engineering, is essential for women to develop professionally in all the areas they wish to. In fact, they could also be pioneers in performing positions of responsibility that, so far, had been performed by men.
We strive to control the use of water in a sustainable way and to guarantee its availability and the sanitation for all. We have reduced environmental pollution through the reduction of chemical products and harmful materials, especially in cleaning products. We have a water tank for the decantation of fats in self-care manufacturing. Thus we avoid water pollution with these residues. In conclusion, we promote recycling in our daily work.
We have recently invested in the installation of solar panels, which improves energetic efficiency and increases the proportion of renewable energy production compared to consumed energy. In addition, we demand our suppliers to agree with our sustainable policy.

We promote economic and social development through the creation of stable and quality jobs. At a corporate level, we have an equality plan that we have developed internally. We perform corporate policies that avoid discrimination and respect diversity. These promote an effective equality between men and women by offering support to the employees and collaborators with functional diversity in order to facilitate their inclusion in the labour market. We promote a youth employment policy that allows us to have 20% of youngsters in our staff with the goal of increasing it annually. We have achieved that age, gender, race, religion or social status do not affect their work position and all of them can improve equally in the company.
