The value of people
In Ratti, as has always been the case, work is seen
as a product with positive value, carried out with an awareness that derives from development that is social as well as personal, and which takes place through the influence of culture, art and personal experience.
If it is true, as Baltasar Gracián y Morales, wrote, that “Metals recognise each other by sound, while people recognise each other by words and, most of all, by actions.” then in the Ratti Group the latter represent, through their actions, the cornerstone of this firm’s existence.
The quality of work is, in the Ratti Group, strongly linked to the value of people both in terms of cohesion and in terms of professional growth. In the latter case cohesion is created when expertise and experience
are shared which, therefore, favours the growth of the Group: human capital that, as such, must be constantly protected and enhanced..
Human capital that finds maximum protection and expression in the Code of Ethics. A fundamental principle of the Ratti Group is to commit to enhancing its employees, encouraging them to develop their expertise

and to grow professionally, in order to guarantee the satisfaction and wellbeing of those working on the production sites.
In addition, the Code of Ethics provides the basis for ensuring there are equal opportunities in terms of work and professional development for all its employees. This is done by enhancing their professional qualifications and performance, without any discrimination, given
that the functions select, hire and manage employees exclusively on the basis of expertise and merit.
