ENVIRONMENT, HEALTH AND SAFETY
OMR considers strategically important the protection of the environment and its safeguarding and the occupational health and safety of its workers during the development and manufacture of its products and production process. It has therefore decided to work to ensure that its plants, production processes, services, operations and conduct do not cause significant environmental impacts or generate potential or real risks to the health and safety of its workers. OMR has organised its management system around the knowledge of the context in which it operates, identifying the stakeholders that are relevant to its system and the related relevant needs and expectations (compliance requirements).
The company's Management System complies with the requirements of the UNI EN ISO 14001:2015 Environmental Management System standard and with the UNI EN ISO 45001:2018 Occupational Health and Safety Management System standard and is geared towards the continuous improvement of its performance concerning the Environment and Occupational Health and Safety (including the reduction of pollution).
- compliance with environmental and occupational health and safety regulations;
- fulfilment of product conformity with customer requirements and applicable legislation
- prevention and reduction of environmental impacts and climate change related to its products and processes, and respect for the human environment and of plants and animals in the perspective of sustainable development.
- the continuous improvement of its performance
OMR believes that it is fundamental from a strategic and competitive point of view:
OMR’s Environmental and Occupational Health and Safety Management System is suited to the type and scale of the risks we have identified and aims to continuously improve its performance concerning those matters by managing the related hazards and reducing the risks, thus complementing our current, TS 16949-compliant Quality Management System.
