Thank you very much. The advice and comments of our people are very important to us. We are convinced that Pay and benefits matter. That's why we have established yearly increases for everyone, ensuring that at the core of our mission is enhancing employee well-being. This led us to create our 'Solvay Cares' program, designed to meet the basic living needs of all employees, considering regional differences and inflation rates.. Thank you for all your hard work. Take care!
