Toscotec awarded ISO 45001 occupational safety certification

Toscotec has been certified to the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 45001:2018 occupational health and safety management system. The certification was issued by Certiquality, an independent third-party assurance body validated by Italy’s national accrediting agency Accredia.

Health and safety culture is considered of paramount importance at Toscotec. This new certification is part of a broader effort to prioritise safety through education, training, and awareness-raising activities at all its locations, and it confirms Toscotec’s strong focus on identifying, addressing, and reducing potential risks. The ISO 45001 certification complements the company’s long-standing ISO 14001:2015 and EMAS certifications.

Andrea Marzaro, Operations Director (COO) at Toscotec, says, “Achieving and maintaining ISO certifications is part of Toscotec’s corporate sustainability strategy. The ISO 45001 keeps us on the right track to monitor, manage, and deliver continuous improvement on our Occupational Health and Safety system. Along with our long-time environmental certifications, day by day we put in place a valuable, reliable, and effective HSE (Health, Safety, Environment) management system and team.”
