Equality and work-life balance
Equality plan
Equality represents one of the basic principles underlying the
Atresmedia

Resources Policy. The company has an Equality Plan, approved in 2014, which establishes
four basic objectives:
•
Ensuring equality of treatment and opportunity.
•
Improving the work-life balance.
•
Preventing workplace harassment.
•
Protecting maternity leave.
The Equality Plan has its own Committee which meets regularly and is responsible for
ensuring that it is implemented correctly. Within this Committee, existing measures are
reviewed and new actions to promote equality are approved
