CORPORATE RESPONSIBILITY REPORT 2013
119
It should be noted that before the application of
any measure that collectively affects the workforce,
Mediaset España guarantees that this must be negotiated
and the notice periods legally established with the
legal representatives of Mediaset España or with the
relevant representatives in companies without unitary
representation must be complied with.
The compensation provided for by law on termination of
employment is applicable, with the exceptions negotiated
at executive level subject to the terms of the relevant
employment contracts.
Image rights and intellectual property of artistic staff are
dealt with by Mediaset España by the inclusion of specific
clauses for the assignment of renounceable intellectual
property and image rights in their employment contracts.
Moreover certain professionals whose work may be
considered by Mediaset España to be of a confidential
or exclusive nature, such as artists or certain executives,
have specific clauses in their employment contracts which
ensure such exclusivity or confidentiality.
The company has been very active in its internal
communications to employees through the Intranet and
the Employee Portal, these being the main communication
tools in this area which have been increased by 15.38%
from the previous year, highlighting the increased use of
static banners as a means of communication for important
notices and reminders.
Published corporate information includes any all kinds
of data of interest to employees such as the main
developments in health and safety, audience ratios
achieved by the various programmes and channels,
training opportunities and grants, among other
communications.
Mediaset España has also published internally a number
of awareness campaigns, including the organ donation
campaign, the Stop Sanfilippo popular race, a blood
donation day, campaigns for the early detection of
melanoma, measures to combat cancer, prevention
of ocular illnesses and the Christmas campaign which
have achieved substantial levels of involvement
among employees.
Equal oppor tunity
Mediaset España’s management and workers’
representatives have maintained an explicit commitment
toward equal oppor tunity among all employees in
relation to gender or any other reason that could
generate discrimination in the current Collective
Agreement.
In addition, the corresponding Equality Plans have
been in force in the various Group companies during
2013, with the main objective of preventing any
discrimination in the work place. The procedures for
handling psychosocial risks and situations of harassment
in the workplace have also been maintained by the
Group companies.
