With the aim of guaranteeing that all the products, services and work of Ge.Ma.Ta. Spa conform to Client requirements in terms of the environment and safety, Management have chosen to introduce Quality, Environmental and Safety Systems in conformity with ISO9001/14001 Regulations and INAIL-Confindustria Veneto 'Lavorosicuro' (Safe work) guidelines.

Ge.Ma.Ta. Spa intends to make satisfaction of the interested parties, a fundamental requisite of the ISO 9001 regulation, one of its own requisites. The interested parties being the clients, owners or partners, workers, society or the community, and suppliers.

Management commitments and wishes are therefore:

• To keep the Quality, Environmental and Safety Management Systems active providing the necessary means and human resources. These should be an aid in reaching organization objectives and are an integral part of this.
  
• To define and spread the aims and programmes throughout the company for implementing continuous improvement. All company departments, with this aim in mind, will be invited to monitor all measures concerning them.
  
• To operate its activities to its best according to the laws in force, bringing itself up to date continuously.
  
• To continuously train, inform, sensitize, involve and motivate all personnel on the methods foreseen by the Systems and company practice, in particular on organizational risks and on preventive methods to be taken relating to tasks undertaken and on the environmental impact in carrying out certain work. This also concerns any contractors or service suppliers working within Ge.Ma.Ta. Spa.
  
• To develop projects for new machines and systems satisfying Clients’ needs, at the same time reducing environmental impact to a minimum and protecting the safety and health of the workers, third parties and the community in which Ge.Ma.Ta. Spa operates, and continuously researching new technologies while remaining competitive.
  
• To guarantee worker consultation, preferably through the Workers’ Representative for Safety, regarding the choices and problems arising for safety and health at work.
  
• To favour preventive action, including internal studies on potential risks for the safety and health of the workers, so as to reduce the probability of accidents, injuries or other non-conforming conditions to a minimum.
  
• To take particular care of clients’ requests for assistance, making these a priority of the organization’s activities.
  
• To maintain acquired environmental standards and, in a way that is compatible with available human resources and finances, bring about continuous improvement in the prevention of pollution. To this effect, the organization intends to dedicate particular attention to aspects linked to atmospheric emissions and the need to reduce waste produced.
  
• To extend its environmental policy beyond the company’s site aiming at sensitizing its suppliers on the importance of environmental factors and, where possible, turning to suppliers who adopt processes with less of an environmental impact.
  
• To strive for clear forms of communication with the public aimed not only at spreading company policy to interested parties but also at receiving opinions/ideas and suggestions coming from outside that are important for critically evaluating the aims and objectives set by the company. With this in mind it aims at promoting cooperation between the various company resources, collaboration with businesses and trade union representation as well as with appointed external authorities.

Ge.Ma.Ta. Spa must be able to adapt continuously to the needs of the market in a rapid and flexible way and grow with the client; it must build up a relationship of faith with the client, seeing him as a partner proud to use a Ge.Ma.Ta. Spa product.

The entire organization, including every worker, and each according to his/her tasks and competences, is responsible for the management of the quality, environmental and safety systems.

All Ge.Ma.Ta. Spa personnel must feel that they are participating and involved in collaborating, following and reaching these objectives.

Company success must also be considered a personal success.
