SAFETY AND PREVENTION
For ACCIONA, preventing occupational risks is extremely important and constitutes an essential requirement for ensuring the health and safety of our professionals and collaborators.
We work hard to prevent occupational risks based on a specific strategy and action plan. The aim of the plan is:
- to comply with legal requirements
- to train, educate and raise awareness of duties and responsibilities
- to engage the entire organization in regulation compliance
The culture of prevention has dominated the company's initiatives to ensure the health and safety of its employees as well as the supply chain.
All of our businesses include training and awareness-raising programmes in their annual plan, in addition to the required occupational risk prevention training.
Proof of this can be found in ACCIONA's certifications and the remarkable reduction in the company's accident rates.
HEALTH AND WELLBEING
Physical and emotional well-being is basic to a healthy and happy life. ACCIONA offers its professionals various initiatives and facilities to make this possible.
In addition to monitoring workers' health through medical check-ups, it also runs campaigns for the prevention and early detection of illnesses. In this line, it reaches agreements with private health companies to offer services with very competitive characteristics for our people.
ACCIONA also offers a face-to-face and online nutritionist service for preparing and monitoring diets and has agreements with gyms on advantageous terms for employees.
EMPLOYEE SATISFACTION AND COMMITMENT
People's satisfaction and commitment are key attributes of the relationship model that ACCIONA aspires to achieve with its employees.
To this end, the company conducts a global survey following the Kincentric methodology, with the aim of finding out the level of commitment and degree of involvement of the people who make up its team.
In the latest 2022 survey, ACCIONA's global employee engagement was of 68%
