We make decisions regarding the selection and promotion of our employees, based on their experience, knowledge, abilities, qualifications required for the position, and organizational needs. We endeavor to provide flexible working opportunities and hours so that employees can balance their work and private life during the pre-natal and post-natal period. We strive to create a suitable work environment for our disabled employees, taking into account their needs and responsibilities. We implement a remuneration and performance system based on transparent and objective criteria, for all our employees, and provide them equal training and development opportunities. We encourage our employees to be sensitive and respectful towards age, gender, race, religion, language, ethnic origin, sexual orientation, belief, disability, political view and cultural and social differences, in their relationships with colleagues, customers, suppliers and the society. The Ethics Committee in our company is also responsible for the implementation of the aforementioned principles and commitments. There is a structure that ensures that all kinds of breaches are reported by employees and that these reports are investigated. We review all our processes and implementations at regular intervals, in line with the equal opportunities policy, and make the necessary improvements.
