CORPORATE RESPONSIBILITY REPORT 2012
All suppliers are local with the exception of content
broadcasting rights ones. The criteria followed to
determine whether a supplier is local or international
is based on the origin of its TAX ID instead of last
year´s criteria that responded to the place where the
headquarters were located. The inclusion in contracts of
the clause referred to above on compliance with certain
ethical, social and environmental standards in addition
to compliance with current regulations seeks to ensure
that suppliers, whichever sector they come from, are
committed to the values which guide the conduct of
Mediaset España.
With regards to content broadcasting rights suppliers,
23% are Spanish suppliers and 77% are foreign suppliers
of which 22% are based in Europe and 76% in the USA
and Canada and 2% in Australia.

The herpetologist and member of the animal guardian association of Thailand Frank Cuesta visited the jungle of
Costa Rica in 2012, looking at the diversity of animal life of this large and fertile country, and the vast region of
Mongolia, and the animals of the boreal forests.
Animal life and its environment was respected throughout the making of the programme and visits to national
parks were made in the company of guides and natural history experts familiar with the area.
DESAFÍO EVEREST
Producer: Zanskar Producciones
In 2012 a group of ten men and women with no experience of mountaineering accompanied the expert
mountaineer Jesús Calleja on one of his most thrilling adventures in an attempt to reach Camp 3 on Everest.Their
time together, the respect they showed for the environment and nature, their discovery of and relations with
other peoples and customs, they way they overcame their own fears, their feelings of solidarity and enormous
effort were all fundamental values in the reaching of the final goal.
Filming was carried out in strict compliance with regulations on employment, the environment and filming permits,
with all material introduced into the area having to pass through rigorous controls. The moving of material was
organised in the same way as high altitude expeditions, by way of a registered company, all contracts with sherpas
and high altitude personnel having been scrutinised. The doctor for the expedition, Ángel Gutiérrez, travelled
with more than 150 kilos of medical material and treated at least 40 local people who visited his improvised
consultancy.
The film crew stayed in refuges designed for mountaineers while the participants lived with the inhabitants of
each village, generating income for local people who also helped as guides and took part in a number of tests
which also enriched the cultural interchange.
