Aim of Ford is to have a dialogue with their supply base in adopting a positive approach to diversity, equity and inclusion (DE&I). This event takes place every two years and focuses on different valuable HR related topics in an interactive manner. Facil was asked to present our transition to a new way of working and how we took the momentum of the pandemic and the launch of a new internal organization to introduce a new way of working within a culture of trust. It was a truly inspiring event with very interesting speakers and exciting new ideas! Ford acknowledges the DE&I initiatives of their supply base by handing out Supplier Diversity Awards and recognition certificates. Facil already won the award in 2015 and was honored with a certificate in 2018. We are very proud that Facil was again one of the three nominees for the Supplier diversity Award in 2020-2021. At the end of this event Facil was again put in the spotlight and granted a certificate by Ford for “our commitment and outstanding progress in building a diverse and inclusive culture” in 2021. It is a great pleasure to know that our values, vision, mission, and teamwork are held in great esteem by one of our main customers, Ford. Facil has obtained the VOKA Charter Sustainable Business 2020 As Facil we are strongly convinced that Sustainable Business is not an option but an obligation to make sure that the next generations will grow up and live in a healthy, peaceful, affordable and respectful society. Therefore we have initiated a project together with the Chamber of Commerce to further develop our business, organisation and processes to be fully in line with the Sustainable Development Goals. During this project, which runs over 3 years, we are gradually defining and implementing effective actions to improve the conditions of humanity and the planet. Meanwhile each year our commitment and actions will be validated through an external committee of experts. The intention is to achieve the UN recognized and approved Sustainability Charter by the summer of 2022. After 1 year of teamwork we are proud to inform you that we have passed the first evaluation.
