HiperDino has been recognized as one of the best organizations in Spain for its policies aimed at people with disabilities who work in the chain. Together with Metro de Madrid and Grupo 5, the company has been a finalist in the 2022 Alares Awards.

The La Suma de Todos project, for the integration of people with disabilities into the world of work, with the different actions and specific plans that it entails, has made the chain, the leader in the food sector in the Canary Islands and the only regional 100% Canarian, will be a finalist in the XI Awards for Excellence in Labor Inclusion and Prevention of Occupational Risks of People with Disabilities.

In this case, there were five categories and 15 shortlisted finalists, and more than 90 projects were submitted.

Fundación Alares recently announced the finalists of the Alares Awards 2022, one of the most consolidated recognitions that, for 16 years, has distinguished the media, companies, institutions, social agents, leaders and academic professionals who best make conciliation more visible and co-responsibility in their work.

The Sum of All

In the large company category, HiperDino stood out for its La Suma de Todos project.

This Comprehensive Plan for the Care of People with Disabilities has a start date of 2020, to promote the labor inclusion of these people.

Motivated by the need to promote the employability of people with disabilities; promote their social and labor integration; overcome barriers and stereotypes, both individual and collective; strengthen alliances with associations and foundations and, ultimately, normalize disability, this continuity initiative was launched.

Currently, HiperDino has a total of 150 directly hired people with disabilities in its workforce, and complies with the reserve quota of 2% of the workforce for this group, as required by law.
