Proger certified SA8000

Proger has obtained SA8000 certification: a new important milestone and a further demonstration of the company’s commitment to social responsibility and, in particular, to the well-being of its employees, confirming the objectives defined in the 2022 Sustainability Report, which focuses on people and the impact on society.

The certification comes at the end of a process of analysis and verification that certifies the implementation of a management system for social responsibility in the field of human rights, workers’ rights and their well-being in the company. Proger is thus reinforcing its focus on these issues and committing itself to the strictest standards of ethical behaviour towards its employees, collaborators and all stakeholders: customers, suppliers, partners, institutions and local communities.

From this point of view, the SA8000 certification can be considered as a further step in the path taken by Proger and as an additional incentive to identify possible improvements in the pursuit of sustainability and social responsibility objectives. In this context, Proger has embarked on a further path aimed at fully implementing the requirements of UNI/PdR 125:2022 in its own management system, as a commitment to act in favour of gender equality and inclusiveness.

In order to share the principles of fairness, correctness and equal opportunities, which the company intends to respect and protect as necessary conditions for achieving its commitments, Proger has defined its own ‘Ethical Policy on Human Rights, Diversity, Inclusion, Gender Equality and Social Commitment’.

Thanks to the Social Accountability Management System, every worker, or stakeholder inside or outside the company, has the opportunity to report any non-compliance with the principles of the SA8000 standard. These reports can be submitted through the specific reporting and whistleblowing communication channel that Proger has activated.

The SA 8000 certification is in addition to those already obtained by Proger and related to Quality, Environment and Occupational Health and Safety management according to UNI EN ISO 9001:2015, UNI EN ISO 14001:2015, UNI EN ISO 45001:2018.
