Taking care of the environment and employees in our company is essential for several fundamental reasons:
Environmental Sustainability: Agriculture directly depends on natural resources, such as soil, water, and air. If we do not protect the environment, these resources can become depleted or contaminated, which would negatively affect the long-term production capacity and harm the viability of the company.
Social Responsibility: Del Mineral has an economic impact on local communities and the environment in which we operate, as we seek the welfare of all our collaborators. Moreover, caring for the environment and employees shows a commitment to corporate social responsibility and demonstrates that the company cares about overall well-being and not just profits.
Improved Efficiency and Productivity: The implementation of sustainable practices in agriculture can lead to better management of natural resources, which in turn can increase productivity and efficiency in agricultural production. Responsible use of water and energy, for example, can reduce operating costs.
Market Competitiveness: Modern consumers are increasingly concerned about the environmental impact of companies and prefer to support those that demonstrate a commitment to sustainability and the well-being of their employees. For this reason, we are committed to becoming increasingly respectful of the environment and offering a favorable working environment for our employees.
Employee Health and Safety: As an agricultural company that values its employees, we ensure to provide a safe and healthy work environment.
In summary, caring for the environment and our employees in the company is not only the right thing to do from an ethical and social perspective, but it is also crucial to ensure long-term sustainability, comply with regulations, improve efficiency and competitiveness, and maintain a positive relationship with the community and consumers.
