R E S P O N S A B I L I T Y The Company also organised a se- minar at its Las Tablas Headquarters which counted with the participation of Luis Suárez, the manager of FCC Medio Ambiente’s Human Resour- ces; Ana Muñoz de Dios, the direc- tor of Fundación Integra; and with a speech by someone who had been a victim of gender violence. Esther Alcocer Koplowitz, the CEO of FCC, also attended the seminar and joi- ned the rest of the staff who formed a heart at the entrance of the head- quarters building, as a show of soli- darity and part of the activities orga- nised to commemorate this day. FCC reaffirms its commitment Through these events, FCC calls at- tention to equality between men and women and rejects all acts of vio- lence through initiatives in the coun- tries in which our Group is present, enhancing communication to contri- bute to a freer and more respectful society. On such a special day, FCC also joins the campaign against gender violen- ce of the Ministry of Health, Social Services and Equality and reasserts its commitment to equality matters, continuously collaborating with the various institutions for a safe society that is free of gender violence. Coinciding with World Day Against Gender Violence, for yet another year, Aqualia has promoted various initiatives with hundreds of employees and collaborators from the Adminis- tration to say “No” to men’s violence against women. As part of the “Me, with you” campaign, the company in- vited all workers to concentrate at the entrance of the offices to read a de- claration condemning any type of vio- lence against women and to express their solidarity with the victims. All the images of the events organised at the offices are available at ONE Aqualia. The campaign this year was com- pleted with the preparation of a spot where employees and collaborators from the Administration joined their voices to say “No” to gender violence. Hundreds of people joined the initia- tive at the www.aqualiacontigo.com website which includes the spot pre- pared during th e campaign and all of the employees’ solidarity messages. The Company also joined the initiati- ves carried out in the various locali- ties where Aqualia operates. Accor- dingly, cities such as Alcoy (Alicante), Ávila, El Vendrell (Tarragona), Lluc- major (Mallorca), Oviedo (Asturias) and Sant Joan (Ibiza) have organised different events to create awareness among the population on this social scourge. Aqualia collaborated in ac- tivities such as the release of ballons, symbolic dyeing of the water in public fountains, or organising protest mar- ches with signs containing the mes- sage, “Me, with you”. FCC renews its commitment to public authorities and social interlocutors and will continue to set up internal actions to increase awareness of the need to eradicate this social scourge and palliate its effects on victims. The key to success is giving all mem- bers of the Group a vision of change, progress and awareness applied to all those actions designed to put an end to violence against women, es- pecially enhancing communication in those countries in the world in which these practices are present. Aqualia employees join their voices to say “NO” to gender violence.
