Health and Safety

We work closely with each employee, supplier, and service company, to achieve high labor standards, both in terms of health and safety, as well as social and environmental issues. This collaboration is based on continuous improvement and training, good relationships, and the adoption of a set of practices, for example:

  • compliance with labor and social laws and development of good working conditions;
  • strict compliance with environmental legislation and the high standards included in CMPC’s environmental and safety systems, which are a requirement for its forestry certifications, ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001 ;
  • ongoing communication with service companies to ensure that high-performance standards are met and to detect any deviations from established procedures and correct them;
  • unrestricted compliance with our Human Rights Policy, specifically the absolute rejection of child or forced labor throughout our organization and supply chain.
