PEOPLE AND CULTURE

People with their passion and culture lie at the base of it all.
The Group is therefore committed to ensuring that all individuals have equal access to development opportunities, regardless of their gender or personal characteristics (“equity opportunity”).
With the policy on gender equality and equal opportunities, “Diversity-as Uniqueness & Inclusion”, Geox intends to implement a plan of actions that have a direct impact on the development and management of people: selection, development plans, meritocracy, wellbeing and training.
In addition to ensuring diversity and equity, we have implemented a plan to prepare and engage all our people in sustainable innovation, so that everyone could personally contribute to the corporate project. We started by training a group of sustainability ambassadors, who are the cornerstone of promoting this new culture and have become trainers for the entire organisation.
The Geox Learning System is structured according to the types of courses, the skills to be developed and the target audience to be involved, with a particular focus on what will be the 'skills of the future'. The Geox Learning System envisages the involvement of both external consultants and lecturers and internal experts capable of transmitting specialist know-how.

The total amount of training hours provided in 2022 was over 55,993 hours, a sharp increase compared to the total number of hours recorded in the previous two-year period. This means that, on average, about 19 hours of training were provided per employee during the year.

SOCIETY

The Geox Group is an active member of the local community in which it operates and is committed to contributing to the social, economic and environmental development and wellbeing of the population. In particular, Geox accepts requests for sponsorships and donations, where these offer guarantees of quality and seriousness, are intended to improve social and environmental aspects, or come from cultural/social promotion bodies. Its commitment is manifested through the promotion and financing of initiatives and projects aimed at supporting the activities of national and international charitable organisations and local communities. This commitment has mainly taken the form of recognising donations for initiatives related to social assistance and integration, the environment, local community development and culture. In order to make its social commitment increasingly relevant, Geox has renewed its partnership with the WWF and is a partner of Golden Links, a project promoted by Banca Intesa and Caritas that aims to distribute new clothes and other goods to impoverished families
