The Policy of Quality and Protection of the Environment

Being a part of the powerful OMZ Group, we can offer our customers the benefit of years’ of experience as well as a wide range of products in the area of engineering, manufacture and servicing associated with the components for nuclear power plants. Originally, the company focused on the VVER pressurized water reactors; however, during the past couple of years we have expanded our activities, and as a result we obtain significant contracts pertaining to the western PWR and BWR reactors. We cooperate with established companies in the market of nuclear power. Furthermore, ŠKODA JS products can be found on four continents. Our team of managers, together with our employees, are prepared to provide our customers with reliable products of high quality, which are available at a competitive price.

As a leading supplier of equipment for nuclear power plants in Central and Eastern Europe, we put an emphasis on the continuous development of our employees. In particular, we offer work to young graduates and let them participate in interesting projects in various countries around the world.

ŠKODA JS is accountable for the continual improvement of the environment. By introducing environmentally friendly technologies, we declare that the environmental concerns, together with the manufacturing quality issues, have become part of the strategy adopted by the top management of the company.

The company’s management fully understands that the economic effectiveness and success cannot be achieved these days without the utilization of modern attitudes and methods. Moreover, the positively engineered impact of its activities and manufacturing on the environment, determines the company’s position on the market, as well as its place among the competition. An integral part of the company’s strategy is to develop and maintain an integrated management system for quality and environmental protection.

In this context, the company is committed to achieve:

  • The continuous compliance with the legislative requirements, as well as the requirements from interested parties, with regard to quality and environmental protection,
  • The constant improvement of the integrated management system, its processes and the prevention of environmental pollution.

The above-mentioned requirements are met by the following:

  • We identify processes, products and activities; and their impact on quality and the environment,
  • We apply the latest knowledge in the area of quality and environmental protection in order to prevent situations which could have a negative impact on the environment,
  • We aim for mutually beneficial relationships with contractors in order to produce quality, and, at the same time, we try to influence them to follow, in all their activities, the principles of environmental protection as well as current legislation,
  • We motivate our staff to increase product quality. Furthermore, we broaden their awareness of environmental protection by training and genuine concern for the improvement of qualifications, knowledge and skills,
  • We set targets and programmes to meet them,
  • We inform our employees and other interested parties, including the general public, about our   compliance with this policy,
  • We pay attention to, and deal with, the comments made by our employees and the general public, with regard to our company’s activities impacting on the environment as well as on the health of our employees.

The implementation of the Policy of Quality and Protection of the Environment will contribute to the better status of the company, and to satisfaction of its employees as well as the shareholders. The company’s management is committed to provide the necessary resources in order to support this Policy of Quality, and to implement the process of constant improvement.
