GXO receives gender equality certification in Italy

GXO Logistics, Inc. (NYSE: GXO), the world’s largest pure-play contract logistics provider, announced that it received the UNI/PdR 125:2022 certification granted by BV-Bureau Veritas, a world leader in inspection, certification, and laboratory testing services focused on responsible progress. The certification helps organizations promote gender parity by structuring their inclusion management practices to establish and monitor specific initiatives for improvement.

“For GXO, this certification is both an achievement as well as a tool to support our business in fostering gender parity,” said Chiara Curcio, Financial Director, GXO in Italy and Switzerland. “We are committed to offering equal opportunities for growth and to promoting a fair and inclusive workplace for all of our team members.”

“Working in an inclusive and dynamic environment in which everyone builds a career path based on merit and embodies our values is essential to our success,” said Alessandro Renzo, GXO’s Managing Director, Italy and Switzerland. “This certification is an important milestone for us to turn our mindset into action with a pragmatic set of initiatives that will help us move the needle on such an important topic.”

The certification process was initiated by GXO in September 2023 in collaboration with the Winning Women Institute, with an in-depth audit of gender representation in the company in Italy and the development of a plan to meet the certification standards. The company identified and will track, over the coming years, key performance indicators in culture and strategy, governance, Human Resources processes, opportunities for growth and inclusion of women in business, gender pay equity, parental protection and work-life balance.

In Italy, GXO will prioritize initiatives regarding company culture, professional development and reducing the gender pay gap to promote gender equality.
