Diversity and inclusion

From discussion and collaboration come innovative solutions and opportunities.
This is the approach Diasorin follows to consider diversity and inclusion issues. The cooperation between heterogeneous working groups produces a wealth of knowledge that contributes to the realization of the company mission: to improve the health and lives of people in the world through diagnostic tests of the highest quality, which are fast and reliable.

The Group is dedicated to the careful management of issues relating to diversity and inclusion in all the Group’s Legal Entities, through the integration and enhancement of diversity.

With this in mind, a cultural integration project is underway between Diasorin and Luminex, which has enabled the Group’s people to enrich and diversify their skills.

Diasorin has implemented anti-harassment and anti-bullying policies that define, for all Group employees, the behaviors to be followed to promote a positive work environment. At the same time, there is also room for the application of specific policies characterized by the different needs of individual geographical areas. Specific training courses on this issue have been implemented in some Group companies.

In North America, Diasorin completes the “Affirmative Action Plan” on an annual basis, in order to analyze the internal diversity of the corporate population and identify areas of strength and points of improvement. In addition, the company works closely with recruiting agencies to promote and enhance diversity, also by facilitating access to the labor market for people with disabilities and former members of the armed forces.

In the UK, initiatives have been organized to promote and enhance Diversity, as well as specific online courses on this topic such as “Equality and Diversity”, which has become an integral part of the soft skills training provided to employees. In the German branch, a specific course dedicated to the theme of Diversity has been included in the Induction plan for all new employees.
