Conversación con la Gerencia General Al menos dos veces al año, la Gerencia General del diario realiza encuentros con los colaboradores con el fin de promover el diálogo y el intercambio de ideas. Este espacio tiene la finalidad de fortalecer el compromiso de todos los colaboradores y dar respuesta desde la Gerencia General a todas las inquietudes de la comunidad de La Voz del Interior. Unos días previos al evento, se habilita un buzón anónimo en donde los colaboradores pueden dejar sus sugerencias y consultas. Las mismas son derivadas a la autoridad máxima para luego compartirse durante el encuentro, dar respuesta a cada una de ellas y a las que surjan en ese momento. Durante 2021, y comienzos de 2022, también se realizaron capacitaciones, talleres o webinarios en todos los niveles sobre diversidad, inclusión, salud, higiene, etc. En este informe compartimos el protocolo sobre: Política de prevención, protección y asistencia de la violencia y el acoso laboral y/o sexual. En relación a la equidad de género, una de las políticas para destacar es incrementar el cupo femenino dentro de las posiciones de jerarquía. Incentivando la participación de las mujeres ante las distintas vacantes que puedan producirse internamente permitiendo la promoción y el desarrollo dentro de la empresa. Permanentemente se revisan las condiciones laborales con el objetivo de identificar mejoras continuas.

Environment

	No, and we have no plans to develop a policy	No, but we plan to in the next two years	Yes, included within a broader policy	Yes, articulated as a stand-alone policy	Not applicable (Please provide additional information)

Al ser un medio de comunicación, nuestra industria no impacta directamente sobre el agua.

Forests / Biodiversity / Land Use
Al ser un medio de comunicación, nuestra industria no impacta directamente sobre los Bosques/biodiversidad y uso del suelo.
Air Pollution
Al ser un medio de comunicación, nuestra industria no impacta directamente sobre la contaminación del aire.
Waste (e.g., chemical spills, solid waste, hazardous, plastic, etc.)
2004 - Programa de Tratamiento de Residuos Peligrosos Nuestra empresa posee una política de gestión responsable que intenta reducir al mínimo el impacto que pudieren generar los residuos derivados del proceso productivo. Desde 2004, realizamos un relevamiento de tipos y cantidades de residuos que la compañía genera. En 2005, comenzamos con la fase que corresponde al procesamiento de baterías y acumuladores industriales, trapos contaminados y cartuchos de tóner de impresoras láser. A partir de 2006, como parte de la gestión ambiental, se llevan a cabo controles periódicos (análisis físico-químicos y bacteriológicos) de los líquidos de la planta de tratamiento de efluentes cloacales, tanto al ingreso como durante el proceso y también al egreso de los efluentes tratados. Durante 2009, se construyó un playón para depositar las tarimas con residuos a incinerar y reciclar. Respecto de los residuos peligrosos, se armó un rack en altura que puede contener unas 25 tarimas y en su parte inferior se construyó una pileta recolectora o de contención de posibles derrames. Este rack es techado y cerrado en los laterales y parte posterior con chapas galvanizadas, con el fin de que esté al resguardo de lluvias, para evitar la acumulación de agua, la proliferación de mosquitos y otras emanaciones contaminantes. Durante 2017, no se enviaron residuos peligrosos a destrucción total. Debido a la considerable reducción de residuos peligrosos y tecnológicos que se presenta en estos últimos años, derivados del proceso productivo del diario impreso, los desechos se unificarán y enviarán a destrucción total una vez cada dos años. Durante 2018, informaremos sobre el acumulado de 2017/2018. Una mejora realizada durante 2017, relacionada con el tratamiento de desechos, fue la optimización de la planta de tratamiento de efluentes, la cual mejoró de manera considerable su operatividad y pasó a ser más eficiente y eficaz en los procesos de disposición.
Energy & Resource Use
2019 - Durante 2019, realizamos distintas acciones para favorecer el ahorro energético y a fines de 2020 y 2021 comprobamos los resultados. Ello significó no sólo la decisión acertada en cuanto al uso y control de equipos de climatización, sino también respecto del replanteo de las condiciones por las cuales se había definido en su momento el contrato con la empresa distribuidora de electricidad en la provincia de Córdoba. Esto definía una demanda contratada muy por encima de nuestras necesidades actuales, en función de la demanda requerida. Luego de un análisis y de mediciones internas, concluimos que podíamos renegociar dicho contrato sin que ello modificara o perjudicara las necesidades de nuestra empresa para seguir funcionando, ya que bajamos la demanda contratada. Esto significó un ahorro considerable en los primeros meses. Luego de seis meses, advertimos que podíamos bajar más aún la demanda contratada.
