What: Falabella Group, in collaboration with the Arturo López Pérez Foundation, provides free mammograms to its female employees through a company-wide initiative called "The Mammography Route."

Why it is important: This initiative demonstrates Falabella Group's commitment to employee health and well-being by facilitating early detection of breast cancer, which is crucial for improving survival rates.

Falabella Group has partnered with the Arturo López Pérez Foundation (FALP) to offer "The Mammography Route," a programme providing free mammograms to female employees over 30. This initiative spans across the entire company, reaching various Falabella stores, distribution centres, and offices throughout Chile. The mobile clinics ensure easy access to this essential health service, promoting early detection of breast cancer. Last year, 2,021 employees benefited from the programme, and by September this year, 1,381 have already participated. The initiative aims to reach 1,764 women by November. Breast cancer remains a leading cause of death among women in Chile, and early detection significantly enhances survival chances. Through this company-wide effort, Falabella Group is raising awareness and prioritising the health of its employees by encouraging regular mammography screenings.
