 Health, Safety, and Environment
Our highest priorities are the safety and health of all those who work in our operations and the care of the environment. We are committed to obtaining excellent results in our business by applying work processes that minimize risk to people, the environment, the equipment, and the installations.
Respect
It is absolutely essential that the members of the Cerrejón community respect every one of our coworkers regardless of gender, race, colour, religion, sexual orientation, or any other difference in thought or lifestyle, always in keeping with our values and with Colombian law. We owe the same respect to the communities we live in and to those with which we are associated.
We are particularly interested in the active promotion of women at Cerrejón, and in the hiring and promotion of local minority and ethnic populations.
Responsibility
Responsibility has two sides: our rights, which we must exercise fully, and our duties, which are related to our decisions concerning the business under our responsibility, the environment, the communities, our collaborators, and other stakeholders. At Cerrejón, we call that ?taking authority?.
Ethics
We are convinced that being ethical, individually and collectively, is a moral imperative and also the key to Cerrejón's success. Consequently, in addition to complying with legal requirements, we are interested in obtaining results by always maintaining a standard of behaviour that is ethical, honourable, and stringently honest in all our actions
Transparency
It is our aim to maintain relations and communications that are clear, open, and consistent with our colleagues at any level of the organization and with other stakeholders. We are open to sharing the way we think and act, and to sincerely listen to the opinions of others.
Integrity
We must be consistent in what we say and what we do; therefore, we consider sincerity and honesty to be fundamental.
Empowerment
We firmly believe we are capable of choosing our destiny. We are freely able to make decisions in line with our aspirations for growth and development.
We value leadership, participation, innovation, adaptability, and teamwork.
We promote employability in an atmosphere of equal opportunities where each one of us can find deep satisfaction in what he does and, at the same time, make a significant contribution to the Company’s achievements. |
