Gender Equality

BolognaFiere Group’s gender-equality management system has obtained UNI/PdR 125:2022 certification. The Company was rated on the results of the main key performance indicators (KPIs) established to meet the objectives of its equality policy and gender-equality parameters covering all Group employees.

Assigned to four companies belonging to the Group (BolognaFiere and Wydex in Bologna, Cosmoprof in Milan, and Henoto in Padua), these certifications testify to the Company’s commitment to promoting and spreading a culture in which the gender gap has no place and where the D&I model is an integral part of its DNA. The BolognaFiere Group is driving sustainable and lasting change sustained by management and HR processes fostering inclusion. These include equality and neutrality during the recruitment phases, and policies ensuring equal access – independent of gender – to training and professional development and leadership programs.

Encouraging female employment and career development opportunities are two key areas for the Company. This focus is acknowledged by the certification achieved, as are the Company’s longstanding family-friendly and employee work/life balance policies, including job-security and support mechanisms during the maternity period.
