Safety at work and environmental protection are subject to fundamentally different conditions in our industry than in stationary manufacturing industries. The measures to be taken have to be adapted to the changing conditions of our temporary work sites.
Adherence to standards for the safety of our employees at their workplaces is the responsibility of the operational units, in line with our decentralized organizational structure. They are supported by comprehensive training programs. Staff and management are required to apply the knowledge gained from training in practice, and also to urge their colleagues to act safely.We harmonize different countries’ various reporting systems at Group level. On this basis, we are able to recognize any need for action and take countermeasures if necessary.
When planning our work sites, effective measures for environmental protection are given high priority. Already during the planning and work-preparation phases, specific precautions are taken to reduce noise and vibrations as well as dust and exhaust gases. Throughout all project phases, we make use of non-intrusive processes and environmentally friendly equipment. Waste is thoroughly separated so that the maximum possible proportion can be recycled. In order to protect soil and groundwater, we deal conscientiously with polluting substances. We are constantly working on improving our environmental standards in all of our markets.
