Diversity & Inclusion


Diversity (of gender, culture, origin) and inclusion are vitally important driving forces that enhance the workplace, promote innovation, and project us into the future, helping us to anticipate the challenges of specific circumstances and the markets at the same time.

We apply strategies that help their talent to be increased and their experience, knowledge, and ideas to be shared in order to stimulate cooperative behaviour and improve our performance.

Diversity and Inclusion 2 accordion


In 2011, in order to further develop and spread an inclusive policy, the Diversity Manager was appointed with the goal of facilitating the implementation of a company policy on equal opportunities and the enhancement of diversity.

The Diversity Manager relies on the support of a complementary working group that involves all the company’s organisational areas, to develop projects alongside the relevant management and simplify and streamline applications.

The Diversity Management’s mission is to:

  • Spread a culture of inclusion between the public and private sectors and civil society, by sharing best practices with local institutions and businesses in order to reinforce the social network
  • Support the management and development of pluralism within the company
  • Boost the role of the Hera Group in developing a culture that enhances differences and ensures a healthy home/work balance.

Spreading a culture of diversity, introducing time-saving projects aimed at ensuring a balance between everyday and working life, health, well-being and empowerment have been the cornerstones of the process carried out thus far. Since 2017, we have organised events and meetings to reflect on issues of diversity and inclusion, such as the condition of contemporary women in various social contexts and prevention.
