Pierroberto Folgiero (M)
Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director
Fincantieri has a steadfast commitment to providing an inclusive working environment that values diversity and fights any and all forms of discrimination, promoting a culture that is sensitive and proactive as pertains to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) issues. Our endorsement of the Women’s Empowerment Principles (WEPs) further demonstrates our support for gender equality and women's empowerment. We are determined to promote an organizational approach that understands, respects, and values differences, beginning with gender diversity. We are convinced that promoting equal conditions for women is a source of growth and enrichment for our company, as well as being a key contribution to socio-economic progress in the local communities in the areas where we operate. Until today, investors and the market have concentrated primarily on goals related to governance and the environment, but growing attention is now being paid to social issues in terms of social sustainability, harnessing talents, equal opportunities, diversity, and inclusion. Company performances are monitored through a number of ratings in terms of ESG, with particular attention on supporting gender balance. Our company's commitment is solid and concrete, as shown by the inclusion of sustainability goals in the long-term incentive plan for Fincantieri's senior management. The Fincantieri Group undertakes to ensure that the unique characteristics of each individual are a source of richness and not of exclusion and centres its model on valuing talents. Our Group recognizes the crucial importance of awareness raising and of promoting gender equality and undertakes to actively participate in the fight against stereotypes. The goal is to create an equitable and inclusive working environment, which provides all individuals with the opportunity to express their talent and develop to the fullest of their abilities. Looking to the future, we think it is crucial to work with the educational system to encourage young women to pursue their passions and aspirations, including in professional sectors that are traditionally dominated by men. We are firmly convinced that gender diversity is a fundamental value for the success of our company and for society as a whole.
