FCC has been selected from among the world's leading sustainable companies to join the list of 47 companies in the Dow Jones Sustainability Index.
 
Created in 1999, the DJSI seeks to classify companies which are leaders in sustainability. The index reviews 2,500 companies annually and evaluates their performance using more than 50 general and specific yardsticks, depending on the sector in which they operate. Companies are assessed on the basis of: corporate governance, risk management, codes of conduct and anti-corruption, environmental criteria, human capital development, talent attraction and retention, philanthropy, and social reporting, among others.
 
FCC's score is the result of the Group's long-standing commitment to sustainability and social responsibility in its activities, which include construction, services, cement, real estate and energy.
 
FCC's new strategic plan (Plan 10) includes sustainability and social responsibility as its main pillars.
 
The Group's policy in this area is set out in its Corporate Social Responsibility Master Plan, which includes the following lines of strategy: corporate governance, combating climate change, attracting and retaining talent, brand image, increasing safety, eco-efficiency, dialogue and cooperation.
 
In an effort to promote and coordinate these actions, four years ago FCC created a Corporate Social Responsibility Department, as well as a Group-level committee to deal with this area. 
 
FCC and all its business areas publish regular reports on corporate social responsibility.
 
The company has approved a Group Code of Ethics, implemented a corporate volunteer programme, and joined the Excellence in Sustainability Club of Spanish companies that are leaders in the field of social responsibility.
