Gender equality and diversity

Adif undertakes to promote the necessary conditions for effective equality between women and men, as well as to banish any kind of discrimination.

This challenge is a priority for Adif's people management strategy, corporate culture, and social commitment.

People are Adif's driving force, as reflected in the 2030 Strategic Plan, and achieving full equality and diversity is one of the challenges that the company has set for itself. For historical reasons and given the sector Adif operates in, the company has a predominantly male workforce. Although female representation (20.20%) is improving, it is doing so more slowly than the organization would like.​​​​​​​

The goal is to accelerate the pace so that the gender gap continues to narrow, especially in certain professions, and to continue the upward trend in female leadership, which currently stands at 27%.
