Prysmian promotes people’s wellbeing through dedicated initiatives, agreements with external partners and its Global Parental Policy to support parents and work-life balance. The Wellbeing Manifesto, launched in 2023, sets out a global framework based on personal fulfillment, inclusion, safety and vitality. This is backed up by local committees and programs including mental health campaigns, sports activities, the Wellbeing Week and the Wellbeing Index, measuring individual and team wellbeing.
One of the pillars of Prysmian’s sustainability strategy is engagement with local communities, forming part of the value created by the Group. Approximately €1 million was invested in 2025 in the form of grants, donations in kind and volunteer hours for social and educational initiatives. These included scholarships in Kenya through the Waste No Talent initiative, Alice for Children projects, and support for La Casa di Elena and for UNHCR, reflecting a holistic ESG approach and a commitment to having a lasting positive impact.
In our commitment to sustainable development, we pledge not to be involved in activities that directly or indirectly violate human rights. The protection of human dignity and equality is at the heart of our corporate identity.
