Our Commitment as a Responsible Leader

Sustainable supply chain

We prioritise fair collaboration with suppliers who share our values. Together we are committed to environmental protection and improving working conditions throughout the value chain. The environmental, ethical and social footprint of our services is linked to the practices of our business partners. For this reason, Fastweb + Vodafone, from the qualification stage onwards, requires its suppliers and subcontractors to take responsibility towards society, the environment and good governance by adopting high standards.
In particular, in addition to compliance with Law 231 and anti-corruption directives, there are two main strategic areas that Fastweb + Vodafone aims to oversee in an increasingly structured manner. The first concerns climate change and greenhouse gas emissions: Fastweb + Vodafone's supply chain represents a significant component of the total emissions generated directly and indirectly by the Group, so the supplier's risk level is also assessed in light of their contribution to the Group's carbon footprint. The second concerns aspects relating to respect for human rights and working conditions in accordance with international standards. To ensure continuous monitoring of these aspects, Fastweb + Vodafone requires its suppliers to undergo ESG assessment, integrating the results into the procurement process.

Supplier Code of Conduct

The Fastweb + Vodafone Code of Conduct for Ethical and Sustainable Procurement establishes clear and binding requirements for all business partners on respect for human rights, working conditions, environmental and resource protection, health and safety, anti-corruption and the use of artificial intelligence.
