Gustavo and Fátima are part of the group of FCC Ambassadors on disability matters. Gustavo is head of administration in central services at FCC Construcción. He has worked for the company for 23 years and, as he himself describes it, his job consists of facilitating the day-to-day life of many colleagues who need his help. He is the father of two children, Daniel and Adrián. Daniel, 14, has a disability that has not prevented him from being like any other child his age. Gustavo experiences disability through his son and assures that "although it is not a situation you are looking for, once it comes into your life you have to try to see it in the best possible way". Gustavo feels "the luckiest person in the world" for his family and for Daniel, a boy who has taught them to value the little things in life.

For her part, Fátima Moliterni is a technical forestry engineer and since 2002 she works at Matinsa, where she is the project manager. Six people work with Fatima, four of whom have disabilities. As she herself affirms, she coordinates a great work team in which diversity is the protagonist, which favors decision-making. And not only that, but it increases the talent of the teams.

This FCC Ambassadors program, of which Gustavo and Fátima are part, is carried out with the collaboration of the Adecco Foundation and integrates employees with disabilities, employees who have children with disabilities and / or managers who have people with disabilities in their teams. The objective is to promote a positive view of disability and support for diversity and inclusion as fundamental values for FCC.

The initiative is part of the work that FCC, and the Construction area in particular, has been developing for years in favor of promoting ethical principles and values, as well as the implementation of programs, internal procedures and positive measures aimed at creating an atmosphere of work that promotes respect between people, equal opportunities for women and men and the integration of diversity.

Diversity adds

A whole philosophy that is included in the claim 'Diversity adds up' and whose values are the commitment to equality, the same opportunities, balance and a culture based on equality.

Thus, the company promotes actions and programs to promote equality, l to diversity and labor integration in a proactive way to contribute to the well-being of the people who are part of the Construction Area. With their involvement, they also strengthen ties with the communities they serve.

The company has a training plan that includes programs on equality and diversity, both for the staff in general, and for those people who, due to specific needs, must implement the policies in the organization, such as the staff that make up the Equality Commission .

In November 2008, the Equality Plan was launched, the first in the sector. Its main objective was the application of measures that allow an organizational environment that respects diversity and eradicates discrimination in any workplace. Two of the main leading companies of the Construction Area, FCC Industrial and FCC Construcción, have received the 'Distinctive of Equality in the Company' (DIE), a mark of excellence granted by the Government and that recognizes companies that stand out in the development of equality policies between women and men.
