CHAPTER 2 | Uniqueness and talent, ingredients for success
The provisions of the Group’s Code of Ethics
are further reinforced by the Suppliers’ Code, which was introduced in 2018 and in which
the Group requires its suppliers to respect national laws, any other applicable laws
and the principles stipulated by International Labour Law conventions, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the OECD guidelines for Multinational Companies
(see Chapter 3, paragraph 3.3 “A process that creates value”).
.
The Ratti Group is committed to preventing
and to opposing all situations involving exploitation in the workplace and in particular child labour,
not only in its production units, but along the whole of the supply chain.
All aboard for sustainability

2.6. Communicating is the key to sharing
Internal communication
If it’s true that communication is not what we say, but rather that which arrives from others, this discipline becomes a key tool in ensuring that all employees are aligned with principles, values and objectives.
Against this backdrop, a key role is played by the company’s intranet. This is the Group’s actual portal that manages the news, publishes shared documents and, last but not least, manages a number of internal processes.
The intranet area of Ratti SpA has a number of sections with a full range of informational and institutional content: Company information (The Group, its history, its organisation and its premises), Financial and operating results, Area News with the latest news, an Events calendar, and Useful information, which includes new opportunities and active special agreements.
The Documents section has been designed to facilitate access to everything that concerns daily working life in the company. There are also areas relating to projects, specific shared documents (manuals, headed paper, company logos), specific company initiatives and working tools, depending on the authorisation granted.
In mid-April the 2017 Sustainability Report was delivered and presented to all employees, during a meeting held by CEO Sergio Tamborini.
This provided concrete evidence that the creation of sustainable value
for persons and the environment represents a key element of the company’s strategy.
The results and initiatives are born out of teamwork in which every idea, print or project has not just given
life to an excellent product that is an expression of Made in Italy, but is the result of all those values in which the company still believes after more than 70 years in business.
As far as employees of Creomoda
Sarl and Textrom Srl are concerned, internal monitors were installed. These are connected with the Guanzate premises in order to share the Group’s main news. In 2018 the 2017 Sustainability Report was also transmitted through information sent to the monitors.
