Iveco Group continues its sustainability journey and holds its second Sustainability & DEI Week
14 Maggio 2024 - 12:00PM
Turin, 14th May 2024. Innovation, financial
discipline, partnership and sustainability: these are the pillars
at the base of Iveco Group’s (EXM: IVG) recently updated Strategic
Business Plan. The Group believes that long-term success is
achieved by pairing innovation with resource efficiency, and
financial prosperity with ESG performance. This implies conducting
its business in an economically sound, environmentally friendly and
socially beneficial manner in accordance with its Purpose “to
advance a more sustainable society”.
Evidence of this commitment was seen in 2023
when Iveco Group launched a company-wide initiative called the
Sustainability & Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) Week.
The initiative is being held again this year, from 13th to 17th
May, and the more than 36,000 employees around the world have been
invited to participate in the full schedule of global and local
activities. Virtual live stream events hosted by senior leaders and
daily seminars will explore the Group’s four sustainability
priorities: carbon footprint, workplace and product safety, life
cycle thinking, inclusion and engagement.
The Sustainability & DEI Week is also an
opportunity to highlight the sustainability targets reached and
some of the ambitious new targets the Group has set, as outlined in
the 2023 Iveco Group Sustainability Report:
- 100% of total
electricity consumption will come from renewable sources by 2026
instead of by 2030.
- 75% of industrial
water will be recycled at company plants worldwide by 2026.
- 30% of office
positions to be held by women by 2028, a new target for gender
parity.
- Gender pay equity
will be maintained across the organisation and be certified by
2026.
Further, paying particular attention to DEI,
throughout the Week the Group will focus on key initiatives
underway that promote employee engagement, reduce biases, foster
gender equity, address mental, emotional and psychological
wellbeing, and ensure health and safety in the workplace.
Another major element of the Week is the
“Volunteering Days”. Local teams are partnering with
Non-Governmental Organisations (NGO) to coordinate projects in
support of the communities where Iveco Group operates and other
activities involving employees. More than 1,300 colleagues will be
engaged in 17 locations throughout Argentina, Australia, Brazil,
China, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Switzerland
and Thailand.
On the occasion of the Sustainability & DEI
Week, a compendium of the Group’s sustainability priorities,
targets and actions, together with the results achieved over the
past year, has just been released and is now available on the
corporate website: Sustainability Essentials | Iveco Group.
Michele Ziosi, Chief Public Affairs &
Sustainability Officer, Iveco Group, said: “We at Iveco Group are
on a journey to advancing a more sustainable society. The efforts
we embed in business operations and daily activities have led to
reaching the Sustainability targets we had set out, and to defining

commitment to making a positive impact in the communities where we
