Human resources policies
must necessarily be a means
to promote talent throughout
the corporation, and go
beyond the different functions, business lines or
geographical areas, while creating consistent
management practices all over the world.
The aim of these management practices is to
ensure the constant flow of talent for management.
This is achieved in a dual manner: on the one hand,
identifying talent within the company itself and
then working on its development; on the other, to
attract the best talent available on the market.
At BBVA, a global policy and a code of
procedure make up the framework that helps
ensure equal opportunity, as well as maximum
independence and confidentiality in the
recruitment processes.
BBVA guarantees equality of opportunities: all
the candidates are given the same treatment, all go
through the same recruitment processes and there
is no discrimination for reasons of sex, race, and
family relationship or of any kind other than the
actual requisites specified for the position.
Most of the Group’s employees are hired
directly in their countries of origin; this procedure
helps ensure that 86.5% of management staff is
recruited locally.
Furthermore, in response to concerns deriving
from changes in the organisation made at BBVA,

was signed with 74.79 % of trade union
representatives. In this document, BBVA undertakes
to carry out a process to adapt structures to the
new organisation model without resorting to such
painful measures as the implementation of a
redundancy plan or objective dismissals for reasons
of organisation. This protocol covers the entire
workforce of the Group in BBVA Spain.
