Committee for Equal Rights, Diversity and Gender Equity
The IECS has decided to implement a gender and equity policy that promotes an inclusive work environment, free of violence, harassment and discrimination.
Following this premise, during 2019 a group of collaborators from the institution launched a proposal to develop a process to promote equal opportunities.
The IECS management team assumed a strong commitment to the issue and the proposal moved forward guided by a specialized consulting firm, which carried out a diagnosis of the situation and an action plan. Within this action plan, a Manual of Coexistence, a Guide to Good Practices and a Reminder of Non-Tolerated Practices document were prepared, which are the instruments that define the institution´s position and the elements of intervention to address and resolve situations that produce inequalities and discrimination.
CIDDEG
In 2020, a permanent work team was established: the Committee for Equal Rights, Diversity and Gender Equity (CIDDEG), whose objectives are to monitor and evaluate the measures adopted and generate opportunities for reflection and training.
This will allow the IECS to achieve an organizational culture based on the principle of equity.
