Similarly to last year, there were no cases of occupational diseases. The main dangers that can cause future
occupational diseases, identified through risk assessment, are those deriving from risk factors: physical, such as noise
and vibrations of the hand-arm system and whole body; and relative to the workplaces and organisation of work, such
as the correct ergonomics of the work station and use of a video terminal. Preventive measures taken to offset these
risks and ensure the correct conduct of activities are monitored through the three control levels envisaged in the
Integrated Safety and Environment Manual.
Workplace health and comfort
To evaluate the effectiveness of the adopted management approach, General Services conduct environmental
monitoring and surveys to assess the internal well-being of work environments, performing air quality analyses at the
Group’s main locations and monitoring noise levels and micro climate, which have resulted in the adoption of
improvements. The Prevention and Protection Service instead conducts safety audits on a regular basis, especially at
newly opened locations or offices, in the event of significant changes to the layout of work environments or during annual
evacuation drills.
The Group is currently reviewing its sites to increase flexibility and sustainability (including environmental
sustainability), thereby confirming the Bank’s close focus on and commitment towards adopting socially responsible
behaviour. All office restructuring operations are designed and carried out with a view to supplying functional,
comfortable environments, with a particular focus on design: offices, meeting rooms and common areas feature
furnishings and new technologies that promote the exchange and sharing of information. For example, the restructuring
of the Milan property, in progress since 2020, sees particularly close attention being paid to new dynamics linked to co-
working procedures, flexibility of space and remote working (for more details, see the section on direct environmental
impacts).
