Sidenor 2022 Sustainability Report

104 Sustainability Report 2022 | Commitment to society Part of the community Part of the community At Sidenor, we are strongly committed to the economic and social development of the regions in which we are present. Our contribution to aspects such as job creation or cooperation with local suppliers involves a significant support to progress in regions where we are located and turns our Company into an important ally for all of them. The strength of Sidenor is not only reflected in economic data. We are part of the society and have therefore always given importance to the cooperation with social entities, fostering initiatives which promote training, environmental care and sports and benefit the least-favored sectors. In order to carry out this significant social work, we develop a continuous dialogue with the communities in which we are present, which helps us understand their needs. The yearly visits that we organize for customers, suppliers, training centers and institutions to our worksites, the communication meetings or the activities planned to create synergies and encourage cooperation are just a few examples of this. In addition, we carry out various sponsorship actions to support the work of sports, cultural or educational associations and entities which are attached to values such as training, solidarity and team work – principles to which we are firmly committed within our corporate social responsibility policies.
