Environmental policy
In 2009, AURAEKO successfully implemented and certified an Environmental Management System complying with ISO 14001:2015. The system helps an organisation to run its business in an environmentally responsible manner, and therefore:
- methodically assess the environmental impact of the company’s operations,
- take effective measures to mitigate negative environmental impacts,
- monitor the effects of its own operations in relation to the surroundings.
For AURAEKO, continuous improvement of the Environmental Management System is a natural endeavour to improve the quality of services and the efficient use of available resources. The company regards its environmental performance as a long-term goal stemming from the specific nature of the industry.
