Diversity
Diversity is Inspiring
When putting together teams of employees, it is our Group-wide human resources policy to prioritize diversity. We understand diversity as a management concept that brings together people with different cultures, personalities, skills, and experiences in such a way as to reflect the international and multiform character of our markets, our customer base, and our business environment.
Our goal is to attract and advance highly qualified and committed employees who can bring various social and professional skills to our Company and thus contribute to our business success.
Women Presence - Women in Leadership Positions
Under our vision to increase women percentage in upcoming years, diversity also means that we reflect the ratio of women to men in our workforce as a whole, and when hiring to fill management positions.
Within HeidelbergCement Group, women made up 13% of the total workforce and held 10% of the upper management positions in 2018. According to the legislation on the promotion of women in leadership positions.
Also, as part of our belief in women empowerment, we have the first on-site female technical engineer in Egypt.
