Sustainability

After more than sixty years of growing activity in the construction, industrial projects, concessions and maintenance sectors, today our organisation has a strong presence in the global market where our subsidiaries are already operating in several countries in Europe, America and Africa, wishing to contribute to the modelling of fairer societies in increasingly sustainable environments.

Since then, we have been working on developing corporate social responsibility within this framework of argument and in accordance with the Principles of the UN Global Compact. And we aspire to achieve increasingly ambitious goals, such as those proposed by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) through its 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), trying to influence climate change, economic inequality, innovation, sustainable consumption, peace and justice, among other priorities that we also looking to tackle.

We report our progress using as a reference some indicators of the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) standards that we consider relevant, and also taking as reference the 10 Principles of the UN Global Compact, as well as our contribution to the Sustainable Development Goals. We do all of this in order to communicate our annual progression to our stakeholders and society in the three-pillar economic, social and environmental field and with maximum precision and transparency.

The Compliance Policy summarizes the basic principles of Copisa Group regarding regulatory compliance, and reinforces our business ethics, transparency (EINF 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022), conduct, harassment protocol, human rights, supplier code of ethics and sustainability. In this sense, the ethical channel is available, noy only to employees, but also to our stakeholders.

The main assets of the Copisa Group are its people. Without its human team of professionals in the different business areas, it would not be possible to carry out any of its activities anywhere in the world. People are the driving force of the company and its main competitive advantage is their knowledge, skills and abilities, empowered by motivation and identification with the Group’s general objectives.

At a global level, human resources management policies are oriented towards a rational work-life balance, managing diversity, well-being at work, health and safety and equal opportunities.

In 2022, the Copisa Group earned the Làbora Seal award, which certifies our involvement in the Làbora Programme, dedicated to employment promotion to assist vulnerable people in accessing the labour market.

Our management system, based on strict compliance with the ISO 45001:2018 standard, places us in an excellent position when it comes to adapting this standard to the reality of each of our activities and to each of the countries where we operate. In this way, we provide added value to the fulfilment of the main objectives of controlling health and well-being, training and working conditions and equipment.

Our Health, Safety and Well-Being Policy includes the management’s commitment based on the requirements of the Standard, and therefore, we consider safety and well-being in its activity as a key element of business management as the organisation’s primary purpose. In the same way, all our workers go to great lengths to create a safe and healthy working environment. The results obtained, which are reflected in our monitoring indicators, confirms the effectiveness of the policies we have implemented, thus maintaining the trust of all the people in our organisation and that of our public and private-sector clients.

The policy of continuous improvement in occupational risk prevention is a constant in our organisation. However, it should also be noted that, beyond the care we take in terms of occupational risk prevention, we emphasise constant interest in the health of our entire team as the fundamental pillars of the company. It is precisely for this reason that we make each case specific to the environment of our already consolidated culture of health, safety and well-being.
