Prevention

We manage the prevention and health of people in accordance with internationally approved standards.

A certified management

Ercros, as a company that has signed the Luxembourg Declaration, is committed to integrating the basic principles of occupational health promotion into its business strategy, implementing the objectives of occupational health promotion beyond those set by legislation and following the framework in managing the health of the people it employs.

All Ercros factories have a management system that includes occupational health and safety, which complies with the ISO 45001 standard specification.

We measure the accident rate of our own and external personnel by means of standardised indicators, which enable us to be aware of the accident rate and its evolution over time, and to compare ourselves with other companies in our sector. All accidents are analysed to see if they can lead to improvements in procedures, safety measures or facilities.
