The experience of the emergia management team in the field of Customer Care, now exceeds 18 years on average, over which, our broad knowledge of the strategies that affect our business, has allowed us to position emergia as an innovative company and since our beginnings, emergia has always been known as a company with a strong social awareness. Emergia Customer Care is a company with a well-defined corporate identity and organizational culture, reflected in our values, which are shared by the other companies of the Valora Financial Corporation, to which we belong.

EMERGIA APPROACH
Emergia Customer Care was born in early 2005, led
by a group of professionals fleeing the traditional
models of the Contact Center industry, to create a
new kind of company. Emergia founders then
decided to go for a different form of management,
defending from the beginning, an approach totally
focused on customer needs.
Our management team, with an average of 19 years
of industry experience, has been working every day since then for a consistent and
sustainable quality management.
Therefore, Emergia applies a company model based on the strategic alignment of
objectives. Focused on merging the client's business objectives with those of
Emergia, this model is complemented by a high level of flexibility and a constant
commitment to finding added value solutions for the customer.

EQUAL OPPORTUNITY POLICY
Emergia policy in this area is reflected in the following Commitment from the
Directorate:
The Directorate of Emergia declares its commitment to the establishment and to the
development of policies that integrate equal treatment and opportunities for women
and men, without direct or indirect discrimination on grounds of sex, as well as to
the drive and promotion of measures to achieve real equality within our
organization, establishing equal opportunities between women and men as a
strategic principle of our Corporate Policy and Human Resources, according to the
definition of that principle established in the Organic Law 3/2007 of 22 March, for
the effective equality between women and men.

selection of employees to their promotion, through wage policy, training, work
conditions, occupational health, work time management and conciliation, we assume
the principle of equal opportunities between women and men.
Regarding communication, both internally and externally, the relevant decisions
taken in this regard will be informed and an image in accordance with the principle
of equal opportunities between women and men will be projected at all times.
The declared principles will be taken to practice through the implementation of an
Equality Plan involving improvements to the present situation, arbitrating the
corresponding monitoring systems, in order to advance in the achievement of real
equality between women and men in the company and by extension, of society as a
whole.
To accomplish this purpose we will have the legal representation of workers, men
and women, not only in the process of collective bargaining, as established by the
Organic Law 3/2007 for effective equality between women and men, but throughout
the whole process of development and evaluation of the aforementioned measures of
equality or the Equality Plan.
