Gender Equality in Synelixis

 

It is Synelixis’ policy to ensure its employees’ rights, which are regulated and derive from national laws and ministerial decisions. Synelixis strives for working conditions of respect for the personality and dignity of its employees in the performance of their duties, as well as the freedom of political and philosophical beliefs within the framework defined by the Constitution and current legislation, applying the principle of equal treatment. 

For this purpose, Synelixis has committed human resources to carry the special responsibility for the work to promote gender equality and the structuring and foreseeing of the implementation of a Gender Equality Plan. An equality plan refers to the comprehensive actions for the promotion of equality within an organisation and the prevention of unlawful discrimination.
