<strong>Sonae</strong> Capital<br />
Contacto (construction and engineering company<br />
in <strong>Sonae</strong> Capital) implements an integrated safety,<br />
environment and quality system<br />
The construction sector has a number of very specific<br />
features, distinguishing it from all other business sectors,<br />
and is one with significant environmental impacts and<br />
where a higher risk of work accidents exists. We believe<br />
and are showing however that it is possible to counter this<br />
situation by taking actions to alleviate these concerns by<br />
the real and effective involvement of everyone involved<br />
in construction works, building a culture of prevention,<br />
safety and above all of responsibility. To that end, Contacto<br />
has focused its actions on implementing proactive<br />
preventive procedures, giving information and training<br />
to all those involved in the production process. Training<br />
sessions are given, particularly in the environmental,<br />
safety and health areas, which involve not only company<br />
employees but also sub contractor staff. All procedures<br />
are formalised and in accordance with the requirements<br />
of the Quality, Environment and Safety System which has<br />
obtained international certification according to the NP<br />
EN ISO 9001, NP EN ISO14001 e OHSAS 18001 standards.
