Group Diversity & Inclusion Council
doValue is committed to promoting the value of each individual and creating a work environment that is respectful, collaborative and inclusive. The diversity of people in doValue, who come from different backgrounds and territories, encourages the sharing of experiences, thus improving the company climate and the performance of the Group.
The creation of the D&I Council is a concrete action of the Group on this area.
In 2018 the Diversity&Inclusion Committee was established in Italy as a listening place to support people to express their potential, regardless of generation, status and the different dimensions of diversity. The path which started locally in some Group companies, has found its natural evolution in the creation of the Diversity&Inclusion Council, thanks to the voluntary participation of doValue employees that represent different countries, business and profiles, who will contribute to develop a shared plan.colleagues from different Group companies.
With the commitment of the Executive sponsors, the Group D&I Council brings a clear Mission and common Vision:

Create a workplace that leverages diversity and nurtures an inclusive culture to support an individual and organizational growth.
VISION
Enjoy diversity within doValue Group promoting a respectful environment where everyone can bring their authentic selves to work, with special focus on Gender, Disability, Generation and Multiculturalism.
Today, the D&I Council has defined an action plan which includes during the year a series of activities inspired by our focus areas with the objective to increase the awareness on D&I topics for our employees, progressing in the roadmap of our D&I culture: Gender, Disability, Generation and Multiculturalism.
