DESFA does not treat diversity and inclusion as mere words or formal commitments, but as an integral part of its corporate identity. Two years after the signing of the Diversity Charter, in June 2023, the National Natural Gas System Operator consistently and proudly renews its commitment to an inclusive working environment, where every person has a voice, value and place.

The company invests substantially in creating a culture where equality is not a goal, but a daily practice. Through specific initiatives, training programs and equal opportunity policies, DESFA shapes a work environment that supports and highlights the uniqueness of each employee.

As stated by the company’s CEO, Maria Rita Galli : “At DESFA, we cultivate a working environment where everyone feels truly welcome and valued. Inclusion is at the core of everything we do and we constantly work to ensure that every person, regardless of background, identity or beliefs, feels safe, respected and empowered. “.

DESFA’s approach to inclusion is not limited to the internal organization. As a critical player in the country’s energy transition, it also understands its role in social change. Diversity at DESFA is not just a policy — it is a driving force for innovation, development and sustainability.

The company has developed and implemented strategies based on three main axes:

• Cultivating empathy and awareness through ongoing education and open dialogue.
• Strengthening equal opportunities , with an emphasis on transparency at every stage of the work cycle, from recruitment to evaluation and development.
• Collaboration with social and institutional bodies to expand the culture of inclusion beyond the boundaries of the organization.

With steady steps and continuous self-improvement, DESFA is shaping a working model where diversity is accepted, equality is a given and empowerment is a choice. Because progress, like energy, needs everyone — without exclusion.
