Corporate & Social Responsibility

SAFETY, HEALTH, ENVIRONMENT POLICY (“SHE”)

Verde shall uphold its position as a leader in the ruminant feed & nutrition industry by conducting all its operations in a manner that is protective of the safety, health and environment of employees, customers and the community. In fulfillment of this commitment, we shall maintain a continuing effort to:

• Comply with all applicable safety, health and environment laws and regulations.
• Enhance SHE awareness among employees and associated stakeholders through effective communication and training.
• Investigate all workplace accidents and illnesses in order to promptly correct any unsafe conditions or practices.
• Integrate SHE considerations into business planning and decision-making.
• Champion SHE responsibility among our employees in their practices, and promote and value their involvement in achieving the goals of this policy.

Verde has a well-laid out and comprehensive energy conservation policy in place and is guided by this policy in all its actions. Besides monitoring specific energy consumption of individual production facilities, several benchmarking exercises are routinely undertaken to consistently improve upon performance.

Verde is dedicated to achieving the full integration of environmental protection objectives into our plant operations. Besides meeting statutory requirements, our plants employ production processes that continue to be improved and developed to minimize emissions, waste and the use of raw materials and energy. We ensure that waste products are reusable or able to be disposed of in an environmentally friendly manner.

HUMAN RESOURCE DEVELOPMENT

As a socially responsible corporate, we believe that the success of a corporate lies not just in meeting its short-term business objectives, but to meet the larger and long-term objectives and responsibilities to the community at large. Verde has survived on the strength that it derives from the support of everyone that we are associated with, be it a customer, a supplier, a partner or affiliate or a member of the public.

At Verde, our social responsibilities are met through a comprehensively crafted and well-grounded policy of care. Our numerous initiatives to fulfill our social and safety objectives bear testimony to our dedication to being a corporate that will be synonymous with corporate social responsibility.

Verde's appraisal and reward system is aimed at increasing employee involvement in the goals and objectives of the organization, and encouraging individuals to go beyond their scope of work, undertake voluntary projects that enable them to learn, and contribute innovative ideas in meeting the targets of the company.
