Madrid, April 3, 2024.- ODILO, a Spanish edtech company that enables all types of organizations and institutions to create their own Unlimited Learning Ecosystem, has received ISO 30415 recognition, certifying its ‘Human Resources Management – Diversity and Inclusion in the organization’ system by the firm Applus+.
This certification reflects the initiatives that the Cartagena-based company undertakes within the framework of its Diversity and Inclusion Plan (D&I). In this regard, the company has over 40% female presence in its workforce. It was also previously certified in SDGs 5 ‘Gender Equality’ and 10 ‘Reduced Inequalities’.
Aligned with its goal of achieving gender parity, ODILO is focusing on being a more diverse company in all dimensions of diversity. Regarding generational diversity, it has representation across different age ranges from 20 to 60 years old, while in terms of cultural diversity, 15% of the workforce comes from outside Spain.
Among the initiatives the company undertakes to develop this aspect of its corporate DNA is its participation in the ‘Incorpora’ program by the La Caixa Foundation, which encourages the recruitment of individuals at risk of social exclusion, its adherence to the Diversity Charter of the European Commission, and the Spanish Network of the UN Global Compact. Additionally, ODILO collaborates with entities like the Employment Resource Center AIDEMAR and the Micrograno de Arena Foundation.
Furthermore, the company emphasizes its commitment through other actions such as mandatory internal training and evaluations on Diversity and Inclusion. It also maintains a whistleblowing channel for situations where the D&I Plan is not adhered to, and it encourages suppliers and partners to comply with minimum standards of Human Rights and labor ethics.
This certification is not the only one. The organization holds other ISO certifications that endorse its good corporate practices, such as ‘Quality Management’ (ISO 9001) and ‘Environmental Management’ (ISO 14001), alongside additional accreditations like UNE 19601 ‘Penal Compliance Management’ and other SDGs that highlight the organization’s contributions to SDG 4 Quality Education, SDG 12 Responsible Consumption and Production, and SDG 16 Peace, Justice, and Strong Institutions.
“We have always aimed to maintain a gender-balanced workforce. We strive to overcome the challenge posed by the technology sector, which has lower representation of female talent. Additionally, we have a wide generational variety and a rich cultural diversity with employees from America, Asia, Africa, and other European countries,” notes Miguel Rodríguez, Business Manager of ODILO.
