- WE GIVE OUR EMPLOYEES SPACE WHEN IMPLEMENTING THE GOALS OF A THRIVING COMPANY
Every employee has the right to express their opinion. We create such a work environment and conditions to make even the lowest organisational level employees interested in contributing to implementation of the Company’s goals. We strive to get to know and meet the expectations and needs of our employees.

Our Company keeps improving its activities and streamlines the use of resources by applying a process approach, which, along with identification, understanding and management of mutually related processes as a system, contributes to higher efficiency of the Company when achieving the quality, environmental, information security and social responsibility goals and makes it possible to realize them more easily. Thus, the required outcome is achieved much more efficiently.
- WE MAKE DECISIONS ONLY ON THE BASIS OF FACTS
Only by analysing available data and information can all employees obtain the real picture of the issue handled and, at the same time, such analyses offer the most suitable solution possibilities. Quick decisions that are not based on realistic assessment of the particular situation may lead to more expensive and longer solution procedures.

Compliance with statutory and other binding requirements by all employees and contracting third parties is a matter of fact as well as responsiveness of the Company towards administration authorities.

- EVERY COMPANY EMPLOYEE IS RESPONSIBLE FOR QUALITY AND CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT OF THEIR WORK, ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AND PROTECTION OF ASSETS AND INFORMATION OF THE COMPANY
The Company’s prosperity can only be ensured by everyone’s responsible work, protection of assets and information must be a part of every employee’s activities.
We are fully aware of the confidential nature of all information and data we come across every day.
