“Business social responsibility is the management form defined by the ethics and transparent relation of the company with all the audiences with which it has relations and by the establishment of corporate goals |
compatible with the sustainable development of the society, preserving the environmental and cultural resources for future generations, respecting the diversity and promoting the reduction of social differences.”
Ethos Institute |
Carbono understands that the Social Responsibility must be present in all business activity and, above all, must have the “sustainable development” as an objective.
The Sustainable Development and Business Social Responsibility involve social change, not only by giving the example of good practice, but over all for considering social development questions in formulating plans and applying business practices.
Carbono commitment is to establish quality relations with all its relationship audiences, implementing and stimulating environmentally and socially responsible practices.
For that, based on its Code of conduct, it has relationship standards established with:
- Suppliers
- Customers
- Community
- Internal Audience
- Government and Society
“A company is comprised of people and exists to benefit them and general society. Its activity, whatever it is, affects and is affected in someway by the environment in which it is inserted.”
