Diversity and Non-Discrimination Policy

KONČAR – Electrical Engineering Institute, a company that wants to develop an organizational culture based on mutual respect and respect for individual differences, has adopted the Diversity and Non-Discrimination Policy and the Action for the Promotion of Diversity 2022-2025.

Our business practice is based on respecting all positive practices of Croatian legislation and international rules to protect fundamental human rights (General Declaration of Human Rights, ILO Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work, UN Global Compact (initiative for corporate social responsibility), UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, Gender Equality Strategy 2020-2025)

PURPOSE OF THE POLICY

Diversity and Non-Discrimination Policy provides guidelines for creating and practically implementing human resources diversity management and promoting a positive culture at work based on personal abilities and qualifications, without discrimination and harassment.
Diversity management implies a systematic and planned commitment of the Institute to attracting and retaining employees with different profiles and capabilities to achieve a higher competitive edge through an inclusive work environment and teamwork. Diversity and Non-Discrimination policy aims to improve understanding of the impact of diversity on all stakeholders of the Institute by defining goals, roles, and responsibilities and monitoring measurable performance indicators.

WHAT DIVERSITY MEANS FOR THE INSTITUTE

Diversity covers differences in ethnicity, nationality, gender, functions, competencies, language, religion, lifestyle, culture, and intellectual and other abilities of employees. Diversity management in this context is a voluntary effort of the Institute to recognize and involve persons with different characteristics to ensure innovation, creativity, and adaptability, achieve long-term business success, and thus contribute to the goals of non-discrimination.
