FCC's Board of Directors has approved the company's Environmental Policy, which responds to the targets set in the 2009-2010 Corporate Responsibility Plan. This plan strengthens the social commitment of FCC, a company heavily involved in environmental services.

Aware of the importance to society of environmental preservation and the responsible use of available resources, FCC has undertaken to vitalise eight Group-wide commitments upon which its Environmental Policy is based:

• Continuous improvement.
• Control and oversight.
• Preventing climate change and pollution.
• Observation of the situation, and innovation.
• The life cycle of our products and services.
• The importance of full employee participation.

The approval of FCC Group's Environmental Policy coincided with the UN's annual World Environment Day on 5 June.

The United Nations aims to use World Environment Day to stimulate worldwide awareness of the environment and enhance political attention and action. One of its main goals is to give a human face to environmental issues, empowering people to become active agents of sustainable development.
