At CrediaBank, we are committed to creating a work environment that upholds ethical standards and promotes respect and equal opportunities for all, regardless of gender, race, color, ethnic or social origin, genetic characteristics, language, religion or beliefs, political opinion or any other opinion, membership in a national minority, property, birth, disability, age, or sexual orientation.
This commitment is an integral part of our corporate identity and is embedded in the Group’s Human Rights Commitment Statement, which defines the principles under which CrediaBank respects, protects, and promotes human rights across all its activities. We recognize our impact on employees, customers, partners, suppliers, and the communities in which we operate, and these principles guide both our corporate culture and our workplace practices.
Read the Human Rights Statement
As a member of the United Nations Global Compact and the UN Global Compact Network Greece, CrediaBank is committed to aligning its strategy, policies, and practices with the Ten Principles of the United Nations relating to human rights, labour, the environment, and anti-corruption, reinforcing a culture of responsible and sustainable business conduct.
The signing of the Diversity Charter Greece which actively promotes acceptance, diversity, inclusion, and equal opportunity in the workplace, further reinforces the Group’s commitment to a corporate culture free from discrimination and bias.
This commitment has also been recognized by the Ministry of Social Cohesion and Family, which awarded CrediaBank the Diversity Label. The Bank was among the 41 organizations that received this distinction, achieving a score above the average benchmark, further validating our systematic approach to promoting diversity, equity and inclusion in the workplace.
A core element of our strategy and business model is the implementation of non-discriminatory practices and measures against violence and harassment, contributing to a safe, respectful, productive, and efficient work environment. In this context, the Group is committed to acting with respect, dignity, integrity, and fairness in all aspects of working life.
We demonstrate zero tolerance for discrimination of any kind, adopting and applying the principle of equal opportunities across all our activities and operations. To support this commitment, the Group provides appropriate and reliable reporting channels through which employees can submit named or anonymous reports and complaints regarding incidents of discrimination, violence, or harassment, ensuring confidentiality, impartiality, and protection against retaliation, in line with applicable whistleblowing policies.
Our commitment to equal treatment and inclusion is further reflected in the Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DEI) Policy, which establishes the framework for ensuring a workplace of equal opportunities, respect, and meritocracy for all employees, while supporting business ethics, sustainable development, and the Group’s broader sustainability strategy.
Within this framework, CrediaBank implements a holistic Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DE&I) approach, creating a workplace that is accessible, functional and inclusive. This approach is supported by dedicated training programmes on accessibility and inclusive customer service, as well as initiatives that promote understanding and leveraging diversity in the workplace. We believe that the more inclusive our working environment is, the better we can understand the diverse needs of our customers and design services that are more human-centred and accessible for everyone.
To support these principles, the Group has established and implements policies that promote equality, fair treatment, and the development of its people, including:
- Code of Ethics and Conduct
- Compensation Policy
- Policy Against Violence & Harassment
- Training & Human Capital Development Policy
- Policy for Handling Named & Anonymous Reports & Complaints
