The Equality Plan is mandatory in Spain

  • The Royal Decree-Law 6/2019, of March 1, outlines measures that companies must implement to guarantee equal treatment and opportunities between women and men in employment and in the workplace by means of an Equality Plan.
  • The equality plans in place before January 14, 2021, have to be adapted to the provisions of the Royal Decree 901/2020 by January 14, 2022.

Benefits of the Equality Plan

  • Avoid penalties of up to 187,515 euros for non-compliance with regulations 
  • Competitive advantage
  • Psychological safety of employees
  • A good working environment which aids productivity
  • Innovation and social responsibility
  • Access to financial aid of up to 6,000 euros

If harassment takes place in your company and you have not implemented a protocol against such harassment, it will be your responsibility, not the harasser's.

How to implement an equality plan

  • Documentation development
  • Development of data models
  • Negotiation of the Equality Plan with the negotiating committee
  • Training, Audit, Communication 
  • Equality plan registration
  • Obtaining the certificate

The timescale of this process varies depending on the workers and the support needed, but it should take about 2 to 4 months. That's why we advise you to start the process sooner rather than later to get it right as soon as possible.

MEDIATION AS AN EQUALITY PLAN MEASURE:

One of the measures that we recommend taking, and that provides many advantages for the company culture, is a company mediation system in order to approach any potential conflicts in a much calmer and more constructive way. 

 
MORAL AND SEXUAL HARASSMENT PROTOCOL AS A MEASURE:

The implementation of a Workplace Harassment Protocol is one of the protocols that we highly recommend in order to prevent both moral and sexual harassment.

We have developed a single online protocol for both types of harassment which is agile, effective and easy to implement. Find out more below:
