RESPONSIBILITY

Tecnimont’s vision of global sustainability, as a multi-level approach
to promote the proper economic and financial management of the
Company, as well as positive relations with society and the
environment. Sustainability encompasses all the economic,
environmental and social dimensions of the Company’s life, by
means of ethical commitment, high quality standards, and
transparent relations with all its stakeholders. These elements are
of paramount importance in gaining and safeguarding a recognized
competitive advantage in terms of international reputation. The
people of our Group have long experience of working in a wide range
of countries and cultures. They are well aware of the fundamental
importance of proper transparent relationships with clients and
local communities based on respect for their different cultures and
flexibility in meeting local socio-economic and environmental
needs. Maire Tecnimont views acting responsibly as thinking of the
community in its widest, most universal sense, through human
development projects ranging from educational and social
promotion to cultural heritage programmes. The following were the
main CSR initiatives of the Group in 2008.
Acqua Acetosa Fountain Restoration, Rome

its former splendour.
