Since last year, FCC Equal, attached to the
environmental services area, has been in-
volved in the comprehensive management
and execution of Special Employment Cen-
tres (SEC) and to providing auxiliary servi-
ces to people with disabilities. Besides the
in-house work of the Group, FCC supports
and works with specialised entities, organi-
zations and foundations whose purpose is
the social and job integration of people with
disabilities and to improving their safety and
health conditions.
Fundación Carmen Pardo-Valcarce is one
of the institutions with which the FCC Group
collaborates. It is an institution with more
than 60 years of experience in the social-
job integration of people with intellectual di-
sabilities. Thanks to the agreement in force
between FCC Equal and the Foundation,
several students from this organization are
trained at FCC offices in jobs relating to the
Group’s business activities: waste collec-
tion, cleaning and maintenance of gardens,
etc. After receiving training, many of these
people are hired as FCC employees in its
different sections.
Accordingly, the Citizen Services Group has
a specialised staff of nearly 1,000 people
with some sort of disability (more than 2%
of people employed directly by the com-
pany) who make up various professional
categories in proportions similar to the total
workforce.
