For this reason, in 2019 we managed to achieve a 54% reduction in\nCO2eq\/M\u20ac emissions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Committed to Health &amp; Safety<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We operate&nbsp;within a <strong>Health\nand Safety Management System<\/strong> that is accredited to the requirements of the\nAustralian Government Office of the Federal Safety Commissioner (OFSC) and is\nindependently certified to International Standard OHSAS 18001 and Australian\nStandard AS\/NZS 4801.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We leverage the wealth of knowledge and experience of&nbsp;our partners operating\nglobally to embed best practices in health and safety locally. We relentlessly\nchallenge the status quo and seek to continually improve our practices,\nbehaviors, and performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We plan for <strong>zero harm<\/strong> by assessing and managing\nrisk at every stage of each project and work activity we carry. Our employees\nare empowered to be safety leaders and care for all the people involved in the\nproject, without being compromised by other business requirements.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Committed to Community Investment<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As active members of the <strong>Australia and New Zealand<\/strong> construction and engineering industry, we believe it is our responsibility to be active members in the resolution of the most pressing social issues in the environments in which we operate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our projects make a long-term contribution to infrastructure, the public\nand our client by ensuring that each has a legacy spanning far beyond the\ninitial construction period. We achieve this by engaging with local government\nand private agencies to identify the key local issues of each project and\nchoose the most appropriate course of action for playing our part in resolving\nthem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our <strong>collaboration <\/strong>with local organizations, group companies, industry members, clients and JV partners is a key factor in our approach to sustainability, as it ensures that the impact for stakeholders is as positive, effective and as durable as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Commited to Quality<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Meeting or exceeding our customers\u2019 needs and expectations is one of our fundamental values. For this reason, we operate within a Quality Management System that is independently certified to International Standard ISO 9001. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our systems are continually tested and improved to meet evolving needs and best practices that benefit both our customers and our business. We work closely with our clients to continually understand and deliver solutions based on their requirements. We firmly believe that by consistently providing attentive customer service and high-quality projects, we will continue to grow a profitable, sustainable business and maintain the strong backing of our shareholders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our employees are skilled and have the adequate capabilities, motivation and training to consistently deliver high-quality work and innovative, value-adding solutions. We consider our suppliers and subcontractors as partners and work collaboratively and creatively with our design consultants, suppliers and subcontractors to achieve a mutual benefit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2016 we obtained the Quality International Standard 9001:2015, which provides value-added results and continual improvement to our systems through leadership, risk and opportunities based thinking.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/m-wysiwig>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"parent":229378,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-228808","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Our Commitment to Sustainability - Ferrovial<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Welcome to the Ferrovial&#039;s website, global operator of sustainable infrastructure.
