Memberships and certifications

In January 2020 we signed our Equality Plan  to further promote equal opportunities and diversity in our workforce, as well as build up the presence of women in management positions and reinforce work-life balance measures.

Check here CaixaBank Equality Plan (available in Spanish) 

This agreement expands our previous Equality Plan, signed in 2011, which positioned us among the leading organisations in Europe in terms of commitment to diversity and transparency.

In this respect, and for the further development of diversity and equal opportunities, at CaixaBank we have embraced the main international principles to foster diversity and we hold certificates that confirm our commitment and determination to improve constantly to make equality a reality.
