Clean Up Day Volunteeringwith the Fundación Ecomar

The Fundación Occident, in partnership with the Fundación Ecomar, organises annual corporate volunteering actions addressed to all GCO employees in which the idea is to work on sustainability, environmental stewardship and the circular economy. 

The company gives up hours originally allotted to work for this initiative, which apart from the training component also encourages participants to take action by collecting waste in various areas all across Spain.

Clean Up Days will be held in the last four months of 2024 at Arrigunaga Getxo beach (Bilbao), at the San Juan reservoir in Madrid and at the Fórum beach in Barcelona.

The Fundación Occident supports these actions with the positive purpose of providing a springboard and helping to raise awareness among employees of a situation which calls for solutions from all of us. Corporate volunteering is another opportunity to build a common culture by facilitating meetings and participation among all employees and their families across different programmes and actions. It also showcases and drives Occident employees' engagement with society and the environment.
