Diversity and Equity
- More than 681 women made up the Celsia team in Colombia and Central America, and we carried out joint work with SENA (the National Learning Service of Colombia) for the training in and development of labor skills in the electricity sector aimed at women to continue strengthening equity in this industry.
- Through our Diversity Policy, we declare our commitment to respect and promote diversity and gender equity as fundamental element of our culture. We have a Respect Policy, which promotes a culture of principles and values, where respect is the basis of our relationships, establishing mechanisms and tools for the prevention and immediate resolution of situations of workplace harassment, within the framework of the Workplace Coexistence Committee.
- Our workforce of women was increased by 6.74%, compared to the previous year, while that of men was 1.74%. This ratifies our commitment to increase the participation of women in a sector that has traditionally been occupied by men.
Collective-Bargaining Negotiation
In 2021, we had collective-bargaining processes with union organizations and – within the framework of a relationship of trust and mutual respect, we managed to reach a direct agreement, signing the collective labor agreements that will regulate labor relations. These processes were carried out in a joint effort to fulfill the Company’s goals and generate well-being for our employees.
