Health and safety training: the experience of ICT Poland
ICT Poland organised a month full of events dedicated to training in matters of health and safety, both in the workplace and at home. All employees had the opportunity to participate in a series of workshops and practical activities covering various topics, such as fire risk, chemical risk in the workplace, ecology and separate waste collection, postural education, first aid, etc. The project helped strengthen corporate culture in terms of training and awareness of the importance of safety in everyday life. Working with qualified partners with extensive experience and a high degree of professionalism proved to be beneficial for us, and everyone showed great interest. Finally, it was really important for us to listen to what the participants had to say: they provided useful advice and input for the future.

ICT Group remains committed to sustainability and environmental protection
After starting up the two vacuum generating systems at the paper mills in Italy, a third one was installed at the ICT Poland plant. The new vacuum generating system for PM11 consists of two blowers, two hydraulic separators and two flow meters for drainage control. It saves between 30 and 70% of energy and does not consume any water, unlike traditional vacuum systems. Thanks to the efficient heat recovery systems located on the exhaust of the blowers, the process water taken from the river can be heated, thus further reducing energy consumption. The system is clearly one of the best solutions in terms of energy saving and reliability.

Showing respect is the best way to earn respect
For years, ICT Poland has been paying special attention to employee relations and has been committed to building a cohesive culture. This is why the company decided to take things a step further by defining good practices to show respect towards colleagues. The project, called “Expressions of Respect”, involved employees at all company levels. From the operations department to the company’s top management, everyone was involved in this great team effort, which, through a series of workshops, led to a list being drawn up of the 10 expressions of respect that are considered to be most important: a constant driver for all company members.
