CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
By joining the United Nations Global Compact and with the decision to adopt a really effective environmental policy, the need to communicate to the stakeholders OMB approach to the most relevant issues in the socio-environmental field has been rising.
Our Code of Conduct is based by the principles contained in the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights (which OMB supports in all areas), the Tripartite Declaration of Principles on Multinational Enterprises, the ILO Social Policy and the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises.
Omb considers human rights as fundamental freedoms for all human beings, without exception.
To ensure respect for these rights, Omb is committed to always complying with legislation in the countries in which it operates. The Group also uses its own internal management system and standards as a reference such as the Code of Ethics, Governance model, the quality, environmental and management system, the company’s privacy policy.
Furthermore, Omb aligns its operations with national and international organizations working to promote human rights such as Charter for Equal Opportunities and Equality at Work promoted by Fondazione Sodalitas
People are at the center of Omb’s business model, as an essential element for the development, growth, and existence of the company, both currently and in the future.

Promoting pluralism and inclusive practices in the world of work contributes both to the Companies success and their competitiveness reflecting their capabilities of answering to the changes both in the society and markets.
Omb has subscribed the Charter for Equal Opportunities and Equality at Work, a statement of intent, voluntarily signed by companies of all sizes, for the dissemination of a corporate culture and inclusive policies, free from discrimination and prejudice, capable of enhancing talents in all their diversity. It is a practical means for the implementation of diversity management programmes. Nowadays, about 800 companies and public administrations do adhere to the Charter.
It is sponsored by the Ministry of Labour, the Ministry of Equal Opportunities and the European Community
We are committed to contributing to the achievement of the objectives shared above through some concrete actions:

OMB HAS BECOME A BENEFIT COMPANY
Following a path of ethical and social environmental sustainability, OMB has added to its statute its constant commitment to the territory improvement and individual growth.
The company has always been considering the model of Olivetti as an added value to be pursued.
Benefit companies have specific features:
on the one hand, profit-making and, on the other, common benefit for a positive impact on the environment; the assumption of responsibility will therefore be greater than in other kind of companies.
GLOBAL COMPACT

PACT OF COMMUNITY
We have launched an important initiative: a Pact of Community “Polo Primo Maggio” (by the homonymous neighborhood ) among eleven subjects: Municipality of Brescia, OMB Saleri, Fraternità Sistemi, Parish, Centro diurno Rose , Associazione Facciamo Centro, Associazione Balconi Azzurri, Cooperativa Rondine, Consiglio di Quartiere, Cisom-Ordine di Malta, Associazione Mamma e Papà Separati Italia-Odv.
Our awareness is that it is necessary to leave the purely welfare approach in order to move on to interventions oriented towards an active inclusion of people.
The Pact foresees the realization of a series of actions : a sewing and mending workshop, digital literacy courses for elderly and for foreign people , reading activities for children, reading meetings for adults, a connection among the libraries from the neighborhood to the inner city , the participation and promotion of cultural events and the birth of a football school at the Oratory.
A partnership between different subjects but united by the same objective: a regenerating welfare.
ECCLESIA
Ecclesia is born:
Assembly of the Academy which has as its only goal OMB improvement.
Where does its name come from?
Born in the Ancient Greece, It was the first example of a democratic assembly in which, all what was of the interest of the whole city, was discussed.
One delegate per department collects needs, ideas and suggestions from his colleagues for OMB welfare.
Every month and a half, a roundtable will be discussing about the suggestions given by the employees and it will decide which of them to pursue.
A dialogue which only focuses on OMB welfare and improvement.
