UNI/PdR 125 Certification: Formalising Who We Have Been for Over 25 Years

HT&T Consulting has obtained the UNI/PdR 125 certification for gender equality. This is not a starting point, but the structured formalisation of a commitment that has been an integral part of our corporate culture for over twenty-five years.


UNI/PdR 125 certification is an Italian reference practice that defines measurable indicators to ensure gender equality within organisations, introducing objective KPIs across governance, corporate culture and HR processes.

Over time, we have built an organisational model founded on responsibility, transparency and the enhancement of people. Today, the certification represents the external validation of a path already embedded in our processes, leadership approach and strategic decisions.

Formalising means making measurable what we have always considered essential: fairness, respect and merit-based growth opportunities. A recognition that strengthens alignment between declared values and operational practices, further reinforcing our governance.

A Measurable Commitment, Not a Declared One

For over 15 years, every person joining HT&T has signed a Code of Ethics placing dignity, respect and non-discrimination at its core. UNI/PdR 125 certification introduces objective indicators covering culture, governance, HR processes, pay equity, growth opportunities and parental protection.

Values are credible only when they are measurable.

Measurability, transparency and accountability are now central elements in how organisations are evaluated by stakeholders, partners and institutions.

We chose to adopt this standard because we believe organisational responsibility must be verifiable through KPIs, audits and continuous monitoring.

Merit as the Sole Criterion for Growth

At HT&T, professional growth is based on competencies, results and accountability. Merit is the guiding principle of development paths, regardless of gender, role or personal background.

Recruitment, training and career advancement processes follow transparent, documented and verifiable criteria. Every stage of professional development is supported by objective parameters and structured evaluation tools, aligned with governance best practices and certification requirements.

UNI/PdR 125 confirms that equity is not merely a declared cultural principle, but a formalised organisational model integrated into corporate processes and subject to continuous monitoring.

A Safe and Responsible Working Environment

Gender equality also means ensuring a working environment based on psychological safety, mutual respect and the protection of personal dignity. It is not only a value-based principle, but a concrete organisational responsibility involving processes, leadership and corporate culture.

Our internal policy adopts zero tolerance towards any form of discrimination, harassment or harmful behaviour. Every report is handled through clear, confidential and structured procedures, protecting the individuals involved and ensuring compliance with applicable regulations.

Promoting an inclusive environment also means creating the conditions for everyone to express skills, ideas and potential without fear or barriers. A safe and responsible workplace is the foundation for fostering innovation, collaboration and long-term sustainable growth.

Tangible Value for Clients and Partners

The certification represents a structural step in strengthening our governance and further consolidates the trust of clients, partners and stakeholders who work with us every day. It is not a formal recognition, but an operational commitment translated into clearer processes, defined responsibilities and measurable standards.

In a market where reputation, transparency and compliance have become strategic assets, organisational solidity is no longer an accessory element but a competitive lever. Demonstrating alignment between declared values and adopted practices means offering greater reliability, reducing operational risk and ensuring long-term continuity.

For those who work with us, this translates into greater confidence in decision-making, more structured relationships and collaboration based on shared and verifiable principles. Organisational consistency today is a concrete and measurable competitive advantage.

Not a Milestone, but a Permanent Standard

UNI/PdR 125 is not an achievement to be displayed, but an organisational standard to be maintained over time with responsibility and continuity. Certification requires ongoing commitment, based on structured monitoring, periodic audits and objective measurement of results.

Maintaining the standard involves adopting clear indicators, updating internal policies and regularly reviewing processes to ensure that principles of equity and inclusion remain embedded in corporate governance and operational decisions.

From this perspective, continuous improvement is not a formal requirement, but an evolving path that strengthens organisational culture and consolidates the credibility of the commitment undertaken.

An Evolving Regulatory and Competitive Context

UNI/PdR 125 fits within a broader regulatory and strategic framework involving ESG criteria, sustainability and corporate responsibility. Increasingly, certification represents a qualifying factor in public tenders, competitive bids and partner selection processes.

In this context, adopting measurable standards of equity and inclusion is not only a value-driven choice, but a strategic decision that strengthens competitiveness, compliance and reputational positioning.
