Governance

The company is a very important venue for social mixing. Equal treatment has a positive impact at every level of the company, developing each individual’s potential and doing away with awkward situations. At the time of recruitment, only skill, experience, interpersonal relations, efficiency, creative capacity, discernment, sense of synthesis and commitment are taken into account. Also, thanks to the wage transparency policy in place, employees can learn about salary levels.

At Syveco, women occupy 33% of management positions.

We set high expectations for our management team, emphasizing efficiency, exemplary behavior, communication skills, proximity to employees, and motivation for collective interests.

Peace and rule of law, framed by rules and effective justice create a favourable context for public and private economic actors by providing the right framework for fair competition, the ability to innovate, be entrepreneurial and develop business. The elimination of corruption improves a company’s image and its room for manoeuvre to support economic development and contribute to achieving sustainable development objectives. At Syveco, 89% of employees potentially exposed to corruption receive anti-corruption training every 3 years.
