CORPORATE RESPONSIBILITY REPORT 2012

Equality of opportunity
In August of 2012 the 10th Collective Agreement of
Mediaset España was signed in which it is expressly
agreed that the Equality Plan of Mediaset España will be
applicable throughout the term of the said agreement, i.e.
until 31 December 2013.
The 10th Collective Agreement of Mediaset España
in its 7th article provides for the setting up of a new
Equality Committee which will be in charge of ensuring
the correct application of the Equality Plan of Mediaset
España and of assessing the degree of compliance with the
Plan, achievement of the objectives laid down and results
obtained following the implementation of the same.
In general in 2012 specific questions of equality and
reconciliation of work and home life were dealt with
by way of collective bargaining within the framework
of the activities of the Equality Committee, resulting in
improvements including the following:
• Improvement of working time flexibility: the minimum
daily rest between working periods for shifts divided
into two sections was reduced to 40 minutes.
• Improvement in measures for reconciliation of work
and home life: possibility of dividing the 3 days for
personal business into hours in order to adapt their
use to the needs of employees.
• The period in which there is the possibility of working
concentrated shifts is extended to Easter and Christmas,
mainly to adapt it to school timetables.
• The application has been introduced of flexible remu-
neration, making it possible for employees to change
the distribution of their salary structure so as to receive
part of their remuneration in kind and thus take advan-
tage of the tax benefits the law provides for. Crèche
vouchers, medical insurance and transport cards are
currently available.
• New preferences in holiday allocation by the establish-
ment of an annual rotation system which ensures that
all employees, regardless of their personal or family
situation, can have preference of choice.
Equality Plans and the Procedure for the Handling
of Psychological-Employment Risks and Situations of
Harassment in the Workplace have been negotiated
