Why an Environmental Policy
To ensure the protection of the environment, it is necessary to raise awareness and involve all those who in some way interact with our work.
For this reason, for some years we have been equipped with an Integrated Quality, Environment and Safety System compliant with the UNI EN ISO 9001:2015, UNI EN ISO 14001:2015 and UNI EN ISO 45001:2018 standards, EC Regulation 1221/2009 EMAS (as updated by Reg. 2017/1505/EU), EU Regulation 333/2011, EU Regulation 715/2013, Ministerial Decree 188/2020-UNI EN 643/2014.
It is an effective tool for managing our activities – transport, treatment, recycling, recovery and disposal of waste, environmental remediation – and the translation of our commitment, aimed at improving the quality of the service offered, compliance with environmental legislation and compliance with the need to guarantee workers a safe and healthy working environment.
