• Minimizing the risks of malfunction by accidents

• Providing a robust system for maintaining and continuously improving health and safety at work

Implementing the standard and obtaining the certification was an effort on the part of several teams, from departments and sections. In the next 3 years there will be a surveillance program to comply with the implemented policies, and in 2024 recertification is scheduled. Internal and external audits ensure full compliance in safety management at all times.
