Vodafone Albania was awarded the Golden Prize for the policies and practices that it follows to ensure human rights, diversity and inclusiveness in work processes.

The prize was awarded to the Human Resources Director at Vodafone Albania, Ms. Christina Samoulada during an event organized by Headhunter Albania in the framework of the presentation of the results of the Equality Index in Employment, attended by over 71 Albanian companies.

 “I feel much appreciated being here today to share with you the successful practices of our company. At Vodafone, we have created an inclusive work environment where employees are respected and valued regardless of their personal preferences. We do not tolerate any form of discrimination and base every employment decision on the merits and professionalism of employees or candidates. With the aim of guaranteeing inclusiveness in any conduct, decision, or action, we organize trainings with our employees and managers on unconscious prejudice. Recently, we’ve been thinking that this practice should be extended beyond Vodafone Albania and we have organized trainings also in the major universities in Tirana and Durres, with the sole purpose of promoting an inclusive culture in the market. These initiatives make Vodafone an example of equality and inclusion in the employment opportunities it provides for everyone” - said in her speech Human Resources Director at Vodafone Albania, Ms. Christina Samoulada.

Vodafone Albania, as part of the Vodafone Group, supports policies and business practices in rules and ethics that promote inclusiveness and the responsibility to respect human rights and inclusion for employees regardless of gender, race, sexual orientation, etc.

More than 435 employees with a variety of experiences, expertise and personalities are part of the Vodafone team and together they have created a collaborative working environment that enables Vodafone’s successful achievements and the diversity in products and services that it provides to its customers.
