The IMG Group is pleased to announce the achievement of another prestigious certification, ISO 45001-Occupational health and safety management systems, underlining our commitment to excellence and industry best practices. This certification was achieved by all the companies in their industrial site in Portalegre, Portugal, home of Evertis Ibérica, Selenis Portugal and Renascis. 

ISO 45001 is the world’s first International Standard for occupational health and safety (OH&S). It provides a structure to increase safety, reduce workplace risks, and enhance health and well-being at work, enabling companies to proactively improve their OH&S performance. 

ISO 45001 was projected to be integrated into an organisation’s existing management processes and follow the same high-level structure as other ISO management system standards, such as ISO 9001 (quality management) and ISO 14001 (environmental management), certifications that the industrial site had previously achieved. 

ISO 45001 certification permits the group to put in place an occupational health and safety (OH&S) management system, that assists them in managing OH&S risks and improve OH&S performance by developing and implementing effective policies and objectives.

Certified by AENOR, ISO 45001 represents a significant milestone in the Group’s continuous pursuit of safety, quality, innovation, and sustainability. The main benefits from applying the standards are:

  • Creation of a health and safety culture, whereby employees are encouraged to take an active role in their own OH&S
  • Reduction of workplace incidents
  • Reduced absenteeism and staff turnover, leading to increased productivity 
  • Reinforced leadership commitment to proactively improve OH&S performance
  • Ability to meet legal and regulatory requirements 
  • Enhanced reputation 
  • Improved staff morale

"We are incredibly proud to have earned the ISO 45001 certificate. This achievement demonstrates our dedication to delivering top-quality products and services while upholding environmental, ethical, quality and safety responsibilities. It reflects our ongoing commitment to excellence, and we view it as a testament to the hard work and dedication of our entire team,” Carlos Paiva, Portalegre Site Manager, home of Evertis Ibérica, Selenis Portugal and Renascis.

The IMG Group is the mother company of Evertis and Selenis, multinationals present in the polymers industry for more than sixty years, and with the common goal of certifying all their industrial plants by 2025.
