With this in mind, we have adopted a system of policies, processes and initiatives aimed at ensuring **equal opportunities, inclusion, protection of health and psychological and physical well-being, and quality of work**.  Organisational flexibility is one of the pillars of our working model. We offer **flexible hours** and a working model based on **up to 95% smart working**, promoting a better work-life balance.  We are extremely aware of the impact that caregiving responsibilities can have on everyone's lives. For this reason, we have put in place specific **operational and financial support measures for workers who are caregivers**, providing assistance to family members with particular health issues, with the aim of accompanying and supporting them in a concrete way.  The company has a **collective welfare** plan in place, which takes the form of an integrated system of measures and initiatives aimed at promoting the **psychological, physical and economic well-being** of its employees. The approach is geared towards prevention, support and improving quality of life beyond strictly work-related aspects, taking into account the different needs of individuals and families.  One institution we care deeply about is the **Solidarity Time Bank**, a tool that supports the personal and family needs of workers who need to take days off work to deal with **serious personal or family situations**, strengthening a culture of solidarity and shared responsibility.  In terms of parenting, we promote a genuine sharing of family responsibilities by **extending paternity leave by an additional five days** **paid for by the company** and offering **coaching** aimed at facilitating a conscious and sustainable return to work before and after maternity/paternity leave.  We also guarantee **meal vouchers during all smart working days**, ensuring continuity in benefits regardless of the working mode.  The involvement and consequent well-being of people are fundamental and strategic elements of our organisation, which translate into constant, open and constructive dialogue and the active participation of workers in decision-making processes. To this end, eFM has long established a reference figure in each team, called the **Engagement** Officer, to protect engagement and a safe working environment, free from any type of discrimination, violence and harassment, thus promoting diversity and protecting the psychological and physical wellbeing, free expression and professional growth of each resource.  To protect people's dignity and respect, we have defined **clear and structured procedures for the prevention and reporting of harassment, violence or inappropriate behaviour**, with the aim of preventing risky situations and ensuring a safe and inclusive working environment.  The **Gender Equality Committee** and the **Psychological Wellbeing Committee** oversee policies relating to fairness, inclusion and wellbeing. The Committees play an active role in monitoring and continuous improvement, contributing to the spread of an organisational culture based on respect, listening and equal opportunities.  Promoting a **fair, flexible and people-oriented working environment** is not just a formal commitment for us, but a strategic choice that guides the way we work and grow every day.  #### Share: [![Share on linkedin](https://blog.efmnet.com/hs-fs/hubfs/linkedin-black.png?width=24&name=linkedin-black.png)](http://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https%3A%2F%2Fblog.efmnet.com%2Fen%2Fwellbeing-gender-equality-and-inclusion-in-efm%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Dlinkedin) [![Share on twitter](https://blog.efmnet.com/hs-fs/hubfs/twitter-black.png?width=24&name=twitter-black.png)](https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?original_referer=https%3A%2F%2Fblog.efmnet.com%2Fen%2Fwellbeing-gender-equality-and-inclusion-in-efm%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Dtwitter&url=https%3A%2F%2Fblog.efmnet.com%2Fen%2Fwellbeing-gender-equality-and-inclusion-in-efm%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Dtwitter&source=tweetbutton&text=) [![Share on facebook](https://blog.efmnet.com/hs-fs/hubfs/facebook-black.png?width=24&name=facebook-black.png)](http://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fblog.efmnet.com%2Fen%2Fwellbeing-gender-equality-and-inclusion-in-efm%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Dfacebook) #### Popular post [![](https://blog.efmnet.com/hubfs/WhatsApp%20Image%202026-01-13%20at%2017.06.08.jpeg)](https://blog.efmnet.com/en/efm-accelerates-global-growth-three-acquisitions-in-north-america-and-europe-strengthen-international-leadership-in-digital-real-estate) Jan 13, 2026 5:14:02 PM • Notizia ##### [eFM accelerates global growth: three acquisitions in North America and Europe strengthen international leadership in digital real estate](https://blog.efmnet.com/en/efm-accelerates-global-growth-three-acquisitions-in-north-america-and-europe-strengthen-international-leadership-in-digital-real-estate) [![](https://blog.efmnet.com/hubfs/IMG_4788.jpg)](https://blog.efmnet.com/en/efm-accelerates-its-business-plan-and-acquires-opinno) Oct 20, 2025 12:00:00 PM • Notizia ##### [eFM accelerates its business plan and acquires Opinno](https://blog.efmnet.com/en/efm-accelerates-its-business-plan-and-acquires-opinno) [![](https://blog.efmnet.com/hubfs/EN%20-Banner%20Blogpost%20-%20Bank.png)](https://blog.efmnet.com/en/facility-management-services-in-banks) Apr 17, 2025 3:57:41 PM • Notizia [Facility Management](https://blog.efmnet.com/en/tag/facility-management) ##### [Facility management services in banks](https://blog.efmnet.com/en/facility-management-services-in-banks) ## Suggested news [![](https://blog.efmnet.com/hubfs/En_blog.png)](https://blog.efmnet.com/en/from-cost-to-investment-how-to-turn-property-expenditure-into-value) [Workplace](https://blog.efmnet.com/en/tag/workplace) [Facility Management](https://blog.efmnet.com/en/tag/facility-management) [Engagement](https://blog.efmnet.com/en/tag/engagement) [HR](https://blog.efmnet.com/en/tag/hr) [Innovation](https://blog.efmnet.com/en/tag/innovation) Jan 27, 2026 9:46:24 AM • News ### [From cost to investment: how to turn property expenditure into value](https://blog.efmnet.com/en/from-cost-to-investment-how-to-turn-property-expenditure-into-value) [Read](https://blog.efmnet.com/en/from-cost-to-investment-how-to-turn-property-expenditure-into-value) [![](https://blog.efmnet.com/hubfs/Service%20Governance.%20Shaping%20the%20governance%20of%20spaces%20(8).png)](https://blog.efmnet.com/en/from-facility-management-to-experience-how-ai-enhances-people-and-spaces) [Facility Management](https://blog.efmnet.com/en/tag/facility-management) [Service Governance](https://blog.efmnet.com/en/tag/service-governance) [AI](https://blog.efmnet.com/en/tag/ai) May 13, 2025 12:00:00 PM • News ### [From Facility Management to Experience: How AI enhances people and spaces](https://blog.efmnet.com/en/from-facility-management-to-experience-how-ai-enhances-people-and-spaces) [Read](https://blog.efmnet.com/en/from-facility-management-to-experience-how-ai-enhances-people-and-spaces) [![](https://blog.efmnet.com/hubfs/(10).png)](https://blog.efmnet.com/en/from-dialogue-to-innovation-how-hr-and-facility-transform-the-workplace) Jul 25, 2025 12:00:00 PM • News ### [From dialogue to innovation: how HR and Facility transform the workplace](https://blog.efmnet.com/en/from-dialogue-to-innovation-how-hr-and-facility-transform-the-workplace) [Read](https://blog.efmnet.com/en/from-dialogue-to-innovation-how-hr-and-facility-transform-the-workplace) ### Sei pronto per unirti alla famiglia sempre in crescita di eFM?
