At HYGEIA, human rights are a cornerstone and govern all human resource management policies, procedures and practices.

Guided by the principle of equal opportunities, we treat our staff fairly, while rejecting any discrimination (based on race, religion, colour, national origin, age, disability, sexual orientation, political views, gender or family status), unequal treatment and violation of human rights.

Description

HYGEIA, defending the principles and values of human rights, prohibits all recruitment and employment of people who have not reached the legally prescribed age for work, making sure that all our partner companies adopt the same policies.

The basic salary level for men and women at HYGEIA is determined based on local legislation and collective labor agreements. There is no differentiation between men and women for the same job. Finally, HYGEIA employs Persons with Disabilities (PWDs), when this is possible. These people are employed in suitable positions according to their capabilities.
