Our employees are an essential and strategic asset for the firm and we are committed to offering them an optimal work environment that (i) reflects the gender and social diversity of all regions where the firm operates, and (ii) enables them to develop professionally and personally following the principle of equal opportunities.

Everyone working at Cuatrecasas commits to (i) complying with the law; (ii) acting with moral integrity and honesty; (iii) applying the highest standards of professional responsibility and competence; (iv) observing all measures for preventing crime and corruption; and (v) respecting all rules and standards on ethics and conduct, particularly those applicable to the practice of law.

The concept of equal opportunities is integrated in our corporate culture. We promote effective gender equality in all practice areas and work groups, and we anticipate any signs of discrimination. All new employees receive gender equality training. Our Equality Plan is being adjusted and is now pending the most representative labor unions being available to negotiate a new plan in accordance with current regulations.

We openly promote a culture of respect toward diversity. We foster an inclusive environment for all our employees regardless of ethnicity, color, age, sex, gender identity, ideology and opinions, religion and nationality. We are part of REDI, the first Corporate Network for Diversity and LGBTI Inclusion in Spain. We hire workers with disabilities directly and also through special employment centers and we have the Silver Disabled Certificate for Organizations (DisCert), which recognizes our commitment to disability.

Through our Smart work model, we consolidate work methods and a work culture that facilitates a work-life balance:  promoting a rational use of time, and flexible and co-responsible work.

For us, it is fundamental to ensure we implement the highest health, safety and wellbeing standards for our team. To do this, we apply the principles and take on the commitments established in our Health and Safety Policy. We have integrated our health and wellbeing services under the Wellness Program to improve our team’s quality of life.
