The commercial responsibility of the management includes the responsibility for:

• effective environmental protection within the company,
• the qualitiy of the products and services,
• the agreed dates, schedules and costs and
• the specified company objectives.

The primary environmental objectives of Rosenberger OSI are:

• Maintenance and preservation of natural resources
• Avoidance, reduction, recycling and proper disposal of contaminating emissions and waste.
• Prevention of incidents hazardous to the environment and limitation of the potential dangers.

Every employee carries out tasks within their field of responsibility which inevitably have effects on the environment. Every employee is therfore obliged to cooperate in the realisation of the overall objective, which constitute the continual improvement process of Rosenberger OSI.

These are in detail:

• Prevention and avoidance of environmental contamination throughout the complete organisation,

• Precautionary measures through research with regard to the environmental compatibility of new products and processes,
• Economical use of raw materials and energy and conversion to the environmentally-friendly alternatives,

• Information, training and further training of employees in environmental protection,
• Information for customers and suppliers on properties, safe and environmentally-compatible transport, handling and disposal of the products
• Cooperation with authorities and specialists in the field of environmental protection.

The focal point of all these activities is the intention to take preventive measures in order to avoid environmentally-harmful incidents and eliminate their causes.
