UNI PdR 125 is the Italian reference practice that provides guidelines on how companies can assess and improve their level of gender equality, promoting a fair and inclusive work environment.
The UNI/PdR 125:2022 certification provides a set of requirements and indicators for companies wishing to effectively implement a gender equality management system. The practice is based on objective and measurable criteria ranging from the distribution of career and pay opportunities between men and women, to the balance between work and personal life, the prevention of discrimination, and the promotion of an inclusive corporate culture.
The main goal of UNI/PdR 125 is to create a work environment where men and women have the same opportunities for growth and professional development.
Grassi S.p.A. has obtained this certification for its Lonate Pozzolo headquarters.
Why is it important?
The UNI PdR 125 certification is important because it allows companies to:
- Create a working environment where all employees, regardless of gender, have the same opportunities to express their potential, thereby improving their satisfaction;
- Support equal opportunities for every individual from the moment of hiring: the only factors considered are skills, experience, and professional aptitude;
- Continuously improve business performance through the system of KPI indicators provided by the practice itself;
- Anticipate European directives and national regulations, which are increasingly moving towards the mandatory implementation of gender equality policies;
- Further enhance their reputation with clients, who are increasingly focused on issues of inclusion and equal opportunities.
