For this reason, since 2008, the Parent Company has adopted its own Code of Ethics as a tool for strengthening and disseminating a corporate culture: the Code applies to the Group and to all parties that carry out activities in favour thereof and lays down the principles and values that must be followed at all times in association, collaboration, and business relations: legality, impartiality, honesty, fairness and transparency, confidentiality, equity, appreciating the value of collaborators, and integrity of individuals. From the hiring date onwards, we strive to spread knowledge of the Code of Ethics among our people.
