Sustainability today is measured in terms of social development, energy saving and reduction of environmental impact. We can aspire to improve our results in different areas and at the same time contribute to improving the world around us if we inspire all our activities to sustainability in its three dimensions: environmental, social and economic. For this reason we translate our policies into actions, evaluate our activities according to social, environmental and governance ESG criteria, set ourselves objectives and measure our progress over time.
Forth Sustainability Report
Italtel, which celebrated 100 years of activity in 2021, has always pursued its business objectives according to solid principles of Corporate Social Responsibility, that is, respecting, wherever it operates in Italy and around the world, people's rights, fair competition, safeguarding the environment and protecting health and safety at work.
The ethical principles inspiring our CSR are those sanctioned by the United Nations Global Compact and relate to respect for human rights, the creation of dignified working conditions, environmental protection and business ethics, themes that constitute the reference of our Code of Conduct.
Italtel is fully aware that sustainability is an essential condition for its development and success. In designing and marketing its solutions and services, it has created a business model inspired by corporate social responsibility and has established
Guidelines for Corporate Social Responsibility ⤓.
In July 2023 we completed the Open-ES assessment, a collaborative platform to measure and improve one's ESG performance, which includes the participation of over 7200 companies, present in over 80 countries, belonging to more than 65 industrial sectors; we obtained the final score of 11/12 equal to the max. for our reference sector.
2023 - Open-ES CardOur commitment at an environmental, social and governance level is also confirmed by the sustainability rating issued to us every year by EcoVadis, an international organization that has developed a collaborative platform to evaluate the sustainability of suppliers operating in global supply chains. Since 2015 we have held the "Silver Medal" which was renewed in August 2022 with an overall score of 61/100.

Environment
In the field of environmental sustainability, the main ongoing challenge is represented by climate change induced by global warming, caused by greenhouse gas emissions due to human activities. We want to responsibly pursue our business objectives and therefore we intend to make every effort to contain CO2 emissions caused directly and indirectly by our economic activities.
We disclose our ESG objectives and results through the Group Sustainability Report drawn up according to the GRI (Global Reporting Initiative) Standards, which we publish every year starting from 2019.
Transparency is fundamental for a sustainable future, so from 2021 we will disclose data relating to our emissions through CDP (Carbon Disclosure Project), a global non-profit organisation.
GREEN TURNOVER
The share of "green" turnover, i.e. the turnover deriving from products and services that have a positive environmental utility, according to the FTSE Classification System 2.0, was equal to 7% in 2022.
CDP aims to raise awareness among companies and governments of the need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, safeguard water resources and protect forests. In 2022 we moved from level D to level C of the CDP rating for the Climate Change questionnaire, which expresses full awareness of the environmental issue and its impacts.
Italtel has set itself a further objective of reducing energy consumption by 19% compared to 2022, equal to a reduction of 500 tonnes of CO2.
Nel 2022 abbiamo misurato la nostra Carbon Footprint abbiamo cioè effettuato l’inventario delle emissioni di gas effetto serra (GHG) del 2021 connesse alle attività delle nostre sedi italiane di Milano, Roma e Palermo, e ci siamo sottoposti alla certificazione da parte di IMQ in conformità ai requisiti della Norma UNI EN ISO 14064-1.
We believe that this certification is very important because it brings credibility and guarantee to our greenhouse gas reporting and monitoring processes both in reference to the consolidated Sustainability Report that we publish every year and to the declarations on the subject that are increasingly requested by our customers.

Private and professional
life balance
The policy that the company carries out in each of the countries in which it operates is to pay attention to the balance between private and professional life and has been using smart working as a hybrid working method for years now. Therefore, the arrival of the pandemic in 2020 represented an opportunity to strengthen and extend the hybrid working practices already applied in the company for some time. The company supported this moment of change with adequate training/information paths which made it possible to contain drops in productivity, if not, in some specific cases, to improve and increase it.
With the passing of the pandemic emergency phase, the company continued to work in hybrid mode, on a voluntary basis and up to 50% of working time.

The Legislative Decree 231/01 regulates the liability of legal persons, companies and associations also without legal personality. The purpose of the Decree is to strike companies and associations for crimes committed in the interest of the institutions themselves by directors, and persons subject to their direction or supervision (criminal liability).
The criminal liability of the company finds, however, a form of exemption in paragraph 6 of the Decree when the company demonstrates, among other things, that:
Italtel S.p.A. therefore adopted a corporate governance system to meet the needs of clearness, transparency and ethics required by the market and shareholders in managing of the business.
The company has consistently adapted its internal control system and continuously strives to maintain it suitable to prevent the commission, by the personnel of the Company, its consultants and partners, of the offenses included in the D. Lgs. 231/01 and subsequent amendments.
For this purpose Italtel S.p.A. adopted since November 5, 2002 a Model of Organisation, Management and Control and appointed the Supervisory Body (SB) to supervise its implementation and adequacy. To implement such a Model the relevant company functions in agreement with the SB adopted specific protocols in order to prevent the commission of the crimes included in the Decree. There are two kinds of protocol :
