Employees

With its employees, CMPC recognizes the value of good relations in the workplace, based on respect and communication stipulated in the organization’s policies and code of conduct. Each subsidiary has freedom of association to form groups and collective bargaining agreements, which also applies to its contractors with their associations and unions. Collective bargaining is carried out independently and in environments prioritizing the search for agreements.
