Facility Maintenance - Sustainability CSR

Sustainable Development Strategy

Since 2010, ATALIAN and its subsidiaries are committed to a Sustainable Development strategy. ATALIAN has incorporated the principles and framework of the ISO 26000 standard on Corporate Social Responsibility into its operations. Since then we have demonstrated our commitments to CSR in a variety of ways:

ATALIAN became a member of the UN Global Compact in 2012.
In 2015, ATALIAN demonstrated its commitment to environmental protection by signing the Caring for Climate Declaration and drafting a Responsible Procurement Policy.
In 2016 ATALIAN issued a CSR Charter intended to raise awareness amongst staff and clients alike. This document aims to demonstrate ATALIAN’s commitment to CSR, but also to quality assurance and improving our client’s performance and satisfaction.
