We create value for people

We apply the concept of operational excellence at all levels of the company to enhance our people. We implement an inclusive policy respecting everyone's uniqueness, considering diversity as an asset, and we are committed to respecting human rights. We offer our customers products and solutions that contribute to the energy transition and work to protect the environment and biodiversity. We guarantee the safety of our plants and transparent relationships with suppliers.

    Our people play a fundamental role in the profound energy transformation underway. They are the essential component of our corporate culture and represent a key lever for value creation.

    Luca De Santis - Head of Human Resources and Organisation at Eni

    The value of uniqueness

    Our approach to Diversity & Inclusion is based on the fundamental principles of non-discrimination, equal opportunities and inclusion of all forms of diversity. We have referred to the Diversity & Inclusion Policy since November 2023.

        Respect for human rights is embedded in our Mission and confirmed by company policies. We place the dignity of every human being at the centre of our activities and are committed to defining our responsibilities in contributing to the well-being of people and local communities. Our commitment is expressed in the ECG Respect for Human Rights Policy.
