WHAT WE'RE DOING
Navantia believes equality in treatment and opportunities are crucial in providing stable, high-quality employment with the possibility for professional development. In this respect, the company devised its first Equality Plan ten years ago to ensure there is no gender discrimination within the organisation.
In the age bracket of employees under 29 years of age, women make up some 36% of the staff.
In December 2019, as a result of the progress achieved in this field, Navantia signed its second Equality Plan, valid for four years, which represents a further impetus in the development of the values and ethical principles of equality and diversity which govern conduct in employment relations.
Navantia’s central action areas focus on culture, communication and corporate image, pay equality and the fight against the pay gap, professional selection, training and development, work-life balance and flexibility and the prevention of workplace harassment. The Plan sets out different measures and specific objectives in each area and is a reflection of the company’s commitment to reducing the pay gap and increasing the representation of women on the workforce.
