Genoa, 15 June 2022 – ERG has further consolidated its commitment to creating a just and inclusive energy transition. Group CEO Paolo Merli has signed the Women's Empowerment Principles (WEP), a set of principles aimed at promoting gender equality in the labour market.

ERG has also entered the UN Global Compact, a network of over 16,000 companies from 161 countries around the world that promotes sustainable development values through ten principles relating to human rights, environmental protection and the fight against corruption.

By joining the WEP and the UN Global Compact, ERG is taking one more step forward towards fulfilling the 2022-2026 ESG Plan with the goal of creating an increasingly international and inclusive Group where diversity and multiculturalism contribute to maximising the individual characteristics and talents of each person in order to generate innovation.
