Inclusive companies, today and together

Our companies should reflect the diversity of our society. It is essential that everyone is respected, listened to, valued and treated fairly, regardless of their origins, gender, age, beliefs, culture, sexual orientation, education and pathway in life. We share four convictions which underpin the IDEA Pact:
for
Inclusion
A company is a community for self-fulfilment.
Everyone must find their place.
for
Diversity
A company is a mirror of the diversity of society.
The uniqueness of each individual is a source of wealth.
for
Equity
A company is a partner of individual pathways.
Everyone deserves to be treated impartially and fairly.
for
Accessibility
A company is a place of trust.
Everyone can be free to be themselves, whatever their differences.
