more than 2,300 hours of employees’ time to charity work, including helping out at food kitchens for the homeless, providing support to the elderly and the disabled, and helping to train unemployed young people. That same spirit of improvement and active engagement in these fields of sustainability drove Atresmedia to join the Fundación SERES, which supports companies’ commitment to playing a role in the community, and the Forética Environment Cluster, a leading corporate responsibility forum, which Atresmedia joined last year as the first media member. This is the second focus group we join after the transparency, good governance and integrity cluster. These moves exemplify the significance we attach to the values of community commitment, sustainability and integrity. Through the Fundación Atresmedia we continued to channel charitable aid from the Group for child protection, better education, and integration of people with disabilities. Milestones included the “Great Teachers” event, which drew record attendance this year, or the celebration of the Hospitalized Child Day; the campaign undertaken in partnership with the Fundación Randstad to raise awareness of the need to integrate people with disabilities, and support for occupational training. I should like to mention some of the accolades that the company achieved in 2017. For the second year running, the Rep Trak España 2017 research survey rated us as the audiovisual group with the strongest reputation. The rating is based on consumer opinions on our financial strength, capability for innovation, leadership and offered range of entertainment and news. I should also mention that the 2017 Randstad Employer Branding report placed us as the best place to work in the communication sector. In addition, one of our latest successes is Atresmedia Formación , where we provide quality training to enable the future professionals of the audiovisual and We have supported road safety, raised awareness of healthy lifestyle choices, protected the environment, supported scientific research, fought against gender violence and advocated the creation and protection of intellectual property: these continue to be issues to which we are firmly committed LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN  | 9 | EXECUTIVE SUMMARY OF THE ANNUAL AND CORPORATE RESPONSIBILITY REPORT 2017  |  ATRESMEDIA
