The National Aeronautical Company of Chile is subject to regulations and social commitments at the national level, aimed at promoting the labor inclusion of people with disabilities or those receiving a disability pension, of any pension scheme within its organization and scope of action, eliminating discrimination and guaranteeing the right to equal opportunities. That is why it is important for our company to move towards an inclusive organizational culture that respects and guarantees their rights, and promotes providing them with a better quality of life, through the implementation of actions aimed at complying with the current regulatory framework on the matter.

REGULATORY COMPLIANCE

The legal framework of the Law N° 21.015/2017, "establishes that companies, whether public or private, with more than 100 workers, must hire or maintain, as appropriate, at least 1% of the employees for people with disabilities or recipients of disability pensions". In this regard, ENAER has among its staff people with disabilities and recipients of disability pensions, all with the appropriate qualification and/or certification as appropriate.

On the other hand, the Law N° 21.275/2020 requires companies to adopt measures that facilitate the Labor Inclusion of workers with disabilities, which establish that they must have at least one worker with specific knowledge in matters of labor inclusion, who will play the role of WORK INCLUSION MANAGER, who will be in charge of the process of labor inclusion of people with disabilities and those receiving a disability pension in the company, being able to carry out a diagnosis of the organization, prepare an Action Plan and training programs on the subject. In this regard, ENAER has a Labor Inclusion Manager, Mr. Leonel Contreras Ulloa, who is duly certified by the National Labor Competencies Certification System (Chile Valora).

The Decree No. 65/2017 of the Ministry of Labor and Social Security, is a regulation that “establishes rules on equal opportunities and social inclusion of people with disabilities for State Administration bodies”, and provides that the institutions affected by the aforementioned regulation must annually inform the National Directorate of Civil Service about the preferential selection processes carried out, as well as the maintenance and hiring of people with disabilities and recipients of disability pensions, information that must be published on the institutional website of the respective organization.
