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.

Objective

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 Employee policies:

  • Adopt and assume the principle of freedom of association;
  • Promote a physically, socially and psychologically safe and healthy work environment, that constantly seeks to evolve through the adoption of the best techniques and practices in the field;
  • Foster implementation of the principles and adoption of the behaviour mentioned in the Code of Ethics and Professional Conduct, which should structure the internal relations between employees, as well as their interactions with different stakeholders;
  • Implement personnel management practices in the framework of recruitment and skills development that foster non-discrimination of any kind and guarantee equal opportunities, building work contexts in which plurality and difference are a factor of continuous improvement and innovation;
  • Adopt practises of leading-by-example, that value learning and evolution, and recognition and compensation practices, based on merit and free from judgments.

How it's made

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 occupational safety makes it possible to guarantee a healthy and safe lifestyle and well-being at work. Corticeira Amorim recognises that working conditions are one of the fundamental factors for the sustainability of any company.

In order to guarantee suitable working conditions, the Company focuses on proper certification of working processes, which it considers to be a privileged means to ensure that processes and structures are solid and sustainable in terms of occupational safety. In this sense, several establishments already have certification according to international standards OHSAS ISO 18001 / ISO 45001.

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.
