Prevention
From the time it was first founded, the Company has endeavored to address 2 practical needs: the creation of bridges to facilitate contact with our client companies and designing effective intervention models.
In reply to the first need, there are risk prevention experts, as well specialized occupational health doctors and the general training program. The risk prevention experts and occupational health doctors give support to the Company's occupational health committees in preventing environmental and physical risks to workers and employees; and the training program is a key element in creating, maintaining and transmitting the need for a greater awareness and handling of the risks involved right to the farthest corner of the organizational pyramid.
At the same time the Training, Occupational Health and Safety, Occupational Health Medicine and Labor Medicine Divisions were created in charge of designing practical and effective models in keeping with the particular characteristics and needs of Colombian companies and which designed products such as:
The Basic Mandatory Plan
This is a program which gives companies basic training in order for them to implement simple tools to maintain the productive capacity of its employees, in accordance with minimum mandatory regulations.

This model has a general focus that is applicable to any risk factor: the psycho-social-occupational health factor, ergonomic risk, lighting, noise levels, etc, backed up with specific advisory services and training material
Occupational Hygiene Laboratory: This is responsible for gauging the different risk factors such as stack emissions, noise levels, particle contamination levels in the work environment, lighting and temperature so as to control and improve the workplace by providing the best possible environmental and working conditions for our affiliated workers/employees.
