SOCIAL RESPONSABILITY SYSTEM
SOCIAL ACCOUNTABILITY SA 8000
The SA 8000 standard is an international standard developed by Social Accountability International (SAI), which addresses issues such as child labor, forced labor, occupational health and safety, freedom of association and collective bargaining, discrimination and practices disciplinary. The standard is based on international human and labor rights regulations, such as the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and ILO (International Labor Organization) conventions, among others.
By opting for SA 8000 certification in 2023, ZAL Port recognizes the crucial importance of its suppliers as integral components of its value chain. This decision reflects the company’s commitment not only to its own employees, but also to those who are part of its supplier network.
SAFETY AND HEALTH AT WORK
OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH AND SAFETY SYSTEM - ISO 45001
ISO 45001 is an international standard that establishes the requirements for the implementation of an occupational health and safety (OHS) management system. ZAL Port has implemented and certified the ISO 45001 OSH system since 2020.
The adoption of the ISO 45001 OSH system reflects ZAL Port‘s commitment to safety and health in the workplace. This approach has the main objective of maintaining a process of continuous improvement in safety and health standards, comprehensively considering all people who participate, either directly or indirectly, in the company’s various activities.
The ISO 45001 certification not only validates ZAL Port‘s compliance with the internationally established requirements in terms of safety and health, but also responds to “SDG 3: Good health and well-being”.
Some of the benefits for organizations when implementing the occupational health and safety management system in accordance with ISO 45001 are:
- Decreased rates of work-related injuries, illnesses and deaths.
- Elimination of hazards or reduction of OSH-related risks.
- Improved performance and effectiveness of OSH.
- Shows commitment to corporate responsibility.
- Preserves the reputation of your brand.
- Motivation and commitment of employees through consultation and participation.
