Quality and Environment

Lantania has implemented an Integrated Management System for Workplace Health and Safety, Quality, Environment and Energy that is an integral part of its activities.

The principles by which it is governed are detailed in our Integrated Management System Policy, in accordance with the guidelines of the following regulations:

Lantania’s board of directors demonstrates its leadership and commitment to management systems by ensuring that they are compatible with the context and strategic governance of our organisation. The operational implementation of this commitment is integrated at all management levels, with active support from our entire organisation.

The potential benefits are:

    opportunities to increase customer satisfaction.

    the risks and opportunities associated with our context and objectives.

Health and Safety

For Lantania’s management, it is of utmost importance to protect the people who work in the company against occupational hazards and satisfy their right to effective protection in terms of Workplace Health and Safety.

Therefore, it establishes and documents a Corporate Workplace Health and Safety Policy as a model for the performance of its activities and as a reference for its Workplace Risk Prevention Management System. This policy is maintained and promoted with the commitment of all Lantania’s directors, managers and employees.

Through this policy we are committed to:

  • Identifying and assessing the risks of the activity in order to eliminate, avoid or reduce exposure to risks.
  • Preventing damage and deterioration of health with the aim of reducing the accident rate and occupational illnesses.
  • Guaranteeing information to workers on the risks affecting their respective jobs and the application of prevention measures.

  • Guaranteeing workers sufficient and adequate training in Workplace Health and Safety so they can correctly perform their duties.
  • Guaranteeing the human and material resources necessary for prevention.
  • Complying with applicable Workplace Health and Safety legislation and other requirements to which the organisation subscribes.
  • Developing, implementing and periodically reviewing the Workplace Health and Safety System appropriate to our organisation, as well as adopting measures to continuously improve the effectiveness of said system.

All workers are responsible for reporting inappropriate health and safety behaviors and possible risks to the workforce.
