We strive for a target of zero incidents by constantly improving our workplace while also taking care of minimising our environmental footprint.

ElvalHalcor has published its first Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD), with the aim to accelerate the company’s decarbonization efforts and increase its accountability and transparency among its stakeholders. ElvalHalcor’s TCFD report highlights the company’s approach on climate -related risks and opportunities, as well as its strategy and performance.
 
The TCFD recommendations were introduced with the objective of promoting standardized and comparable reporting by companies to their stakeholders on the risks and opportunities related to climate change. These recommendations are based on four primary areas, Governance, Strategy, Risk Management, and Metrics & Targets, and include eleven recommendations that outline the necessary disclosures under each of these areas. ElvalHalcor's TCFD report covers all four areas and includes information on all eleven recommendations.
