Esperamos que nuestros proveedores integren la responsabilidad ambiental en todas sus operaciones y trabajen para minimizar los impactos negativos sobre la comunidad y el medioambiente, al tiempo que resguardan la salud y la seguridad de los trabajadores. Nuestra empresa está certificada según norma ISO 14001. Nuestros estándares ambientales para proveedores son:
1) Permisos e informes ambientales
Se deben obtener y conservar actualizados todos los permisos y registros ambientales requeridos, y cumplir los requisitos en las operaciones.
2) Prevención de la contaminación, reducción de recursos y protección climática
Se reducirá el despilfarro de los recursos como el agua y la energía, en su origen, a través de medidas para modificar la producción, los procesos de mantenimiento e instalaciones, la sustitución de materiales, la conservación, el reciclado y la reutilización de los materiales.
3) Sustancias peligrosas
Los productos químicos, incluidos los residuos, se identificarán y manejarán de forma que se garantice la seguridad en su manipulación, transporte, depósito, reciclado o eliminación.
4) Residuos líquidos y sólidos
Los residuos generados en las operaciones, los procesos industriales y las instalaciones sanitarias se deben supervisar, controlar y tratar de la forma adecuada antes de su vertido o eliminación.
5) Emisiones a la atmósfera
Las emisiones gaseosas de productos químicos orgánicos volátiles, aerosoles, materiales corrosivos, partículas, productos químicos dañinos para la capa de ozono y derivados de la combustión generada en las operaciones se deben describir, supervisar, controlar y tratar.
6) Restricciones sobre el contenido de los productos
Los proveedores deben cumplir las leyes y disposiciones aplicables con relación a la prohibición o restricción del uso de sustancias específicas, (reglamentos REACH, RoHS y normativa 3TG), incluidas las normas de etiquetado para el reciclado y eliminación.
Cuando la empresa lo solicite, los proveedores informarán sobre la presencia de sustancias en cualquier material que entregue a la empresa y que pudieran estar restringidas, o bien que requieran informar a las entidades gubernamentales o clientes.
7) Consumo de energía y emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero
Los proveedores deben buscar métodos económicos que permitan mejorar la eficiencia energética en sus operaciones y minimizar el consumo de energía y las emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero. Se debe monitorizar el consumo significativo de energía, así como las emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero en las instalaciones o a nivel corporativo.
(8) Transporte
Los proveedores deben cumplir con todas las leyes aplicables al transporte de bienes y materiales: registros, certificaciones, capacitación.

Translation - English Code of Conduct for Suppliers – Environmental Conditions
We expect our suppliers to integrate environmental responsibility into all their operations and to work to minimize negative impacts on the community and the environment, while protecting the health and the safety of the workers. Our company is certified according to ISO 14001. Our environmental standards for suppliers are:
1) Environmental permits and reports
All the environmental permits and records required must be obtained and kept up-to-date, and the requirements in operations must be complied with.
2) Pollution prevention, reduction of resources and climate protection
Wastage of resources such as water and energy will be reduced, at its origin, through measures to modify production, the processes of maintenance and installations, the substitution of materials, preservation, recycling, and reuse of materials.
3) Hazardous substances
Chemical products, including waste materials, will be identified and managed so as to ensure safety in their handling, transport, storage, recycling or elimination.
4) Liquid and solid waste
The waste generated in the operations, the industrial processes and the sanitation facilities must be supervised, controlled and treated suitably prior to its dumping or elimination.
5) Atmospheric emissions
Gaseous emissions of volatile organic chemical products, aerosols, corrosive materials, particles, chemical products that are harmful to the ozone layer and derived from the combustion generated in the operations must be described, supervised, controlled and treated.
6) Restrictions on product content
Suppliers must comply with the applicable laws and provisions regarding the prohibition or restriction of the use of specific substances (REACH, RoHS and 3TG regulations), including labelling standards for recycling and disposal.
When the company so requests, suppliers will report on the presence of substances in any material delivered to the company and that could be restricted, or else require reporting to the governmental entities or customers.
7) Energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions
Suppliers must seek economical methods that allow the improvement of energy efficiency in their operations and minimization of energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. Significant energy consumption must be monitored, as well as greenhouse gas emissions in the installations or at corporate level.
(8) Transport
Suppliers must comply with all laws applicable to transport of goods and materials: records, certification, and training.

Bio
My experience in
translation was initially gained through work in the educational field (I
taught English for 14 years at the bilingual British School of Aragon in
Zaragoza, Spain) and in recent years, from working with Spanish and other
European outsourcers as well as the local business, university and medical
communities in cities such as Zaragoza, Pamplona, Madrid and Barcelona.
In the latter part of 2021,
I began an exciting new long-term project with Prodigioso Volcán, an innovative
Spain-based company that develops and invents projects and communications
strategies for some of the most important Spanish and multinational
enterprises, and my involvement in this project continues up to the present.
I am originally from a US
border town, so it could be said that I have been using both Spanish and
English all my life. I have travelled extensively in the United States and
Mexico and have toured England, Scotland, Wales, France, Germany and
Portugal. I have ample experience in translation for leading companies in
sustainable energy and the automotive sector, as well as for national and
regional institutions and important events conventions and trade fairs.
