The Strategic Plan 2026 has placed the commitment with Sustainability at the top of the agenda.
We have dened Gender Equality as one of the sustainability commitments, assuming the target of reaching 30% of women in managing positions by 2026.

CEO Mota-Engil Group
1. FRAMEWORK
Aware of the importance and the crucial role Mota-Engil has in contributing to the sustainable development goals, the Group integrated Sustainability into its most recent Strategic Plan 2026 as a strategic pillar under which an indicator of 30% of women recruited/promoted to management positions was established as a strategic target.
The right for gender equality is enshrined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, Mota-Engil having subscribed the CEO Guide to Human Rights, which is essential to the development of society and to the full participation of all people, regardless of gender, in the social, professional and political life of the nations.
In parallel, the right for gender equality is equally established in the Constitution of the Portuguese Republic, namely in article 9, subparagraph h), constituting a legal obligation and not just an intentions statement.
In turn, in 2012 Resolution of the Council of Ministers no. 19/2012 of 8 march strengthened such right, determining the compulsory adoption of a plan for equality in all entities of the State's corporate sector, with a view to achieve equal treatment and opportunities among women and men, eliminating discrimination and facilitating the reconciliation of the work, family and private life of the individuals. Subsequently, and increasing its extension, the companies listed on the stock exchange were, on a second phase, subject to this obligation on account of Law no. 62/2017 of 1 august, which approved the equitable representation scheme between women and men in the management and supervisory bodies of the entities of the corporate public sector and companies listed on the stock exchange, defining the obligation for drawing up and displaying annual plans for gender equality.
In order to guarantee the efficient implementation and monitoring of the guidelines enshrined in the newly announced Strategic Plan 2026 recently disclosed, the Mota-Engil Group drawn up the present Plan for Gender Equality updated for the 2022 cycle, aimed at all Workers and Members of the Managing Bodies, as provided for in Article 7 of Law 62/2017.
