GREEN ECONOMY, ECO-INNOVATION AS A DEVELOPING PATTERN – Condor Group is the key player at the Campania Eco-Friendly Festival

Condor wants to add an important value, to grow the market but not only: the natural environment we live in must be protected, and therefore our social responsibility secured.

The CONDOR Group is involved in a superb path, whose aim is promoting eco-friendly yet innovative products, keeping high European standards as of safety matters: that’s a true challenge, which the whole entrepreneurship system must face with in order to support our country growing.

CONDOR quality products is also guaranteed by the number of certifications obtained: SGS  S.A. (high-quality standards and customer satisfaction); DAS UKAS (ethic behaviours and natural environment protection); NF (products in compliance with French regulations).

“There is quite a noteworthy product impact on the environment, often neglected.” – says Francesco Petrosino, Condor Group General Director – “That’s the reason why we’re making eco-friendly choices: it is a duty a company cannot defy, and it pays back. Investing on eco-friendly  innovations is a winning factor to CONDOR, which makes us competitive especially on the international market”.    

CONDOR Group pattern, an expression of governance policy, has been the key player at the “Campania Eco Festival”, one of the most eco-friendly and important projects in Italy.

The event, arranged at the Fosso Imperatore eco-area (Salerno), a modern structure designed to manage waste sorting, had the aim of sensitising young people, coupling passion for music and for the natural environment, thanks to the attendance of international musicians, managers and green economy scientists.

“Our aim is to get people through this, how an efficient industrial production can be achieved by bearing in mind the European regulations, which advert an intelligent growing from an eco-sustainable point of view. An experience” – says Petrosino ending his speech – “that will make the new generation aware of how to be a good citizen and to make efforts, every single one, protecting our planet, starting from the industries.”

In particular, CONDOR supports a new social communication project, which is aimed to promote virtuous ethic, safeguarding the nature by advertising such subjects like the waste sorting, recycling, renewable energy and savings. We can go from small “green” daily tasks, inspired by a healthy and eco-friendly life-style: biological food, planting trees to mitigate CO2 emissions produced during events, using biocompatible glass and dishes, as a free distribution of public waters.

So, CONDOR social responsibility is once again a chosen strategy, which aims to appreciate the territory, cooperating as well with most important regional universities and offering training to deserving students.

 

Condor Group investe in formazione

Il 2014 si è aperto nel segno della ricerca per Condor Group – industria specializzata in prodotti innovativi per edilizia ed infrastrutture – grazie al progetto formativo promosso per valorizzare i giovani del territorio. Siglate tre importanti partnership con l’Università di Salerno, CorCE Campania e Business School del Sole 24Ore, tramite Confindustria Assafrica & Mediterraneo, finalizzate a stage e tirocini di inserimento nell’area marketing e comunicazione, con particolare attenzione all’internazionalizzazione ed ai social media.

“I giovani sono la nostra prima risorsa – spiega Francesco Petrosino, Direttore Generale di Condor Group – basti pensare che su circa 100 dipendenti, l’età media in azienda è di 32 anni. Come imprenditore sento la responsabilità di fare la mia parte per valorizzare il nostro territorio, soprattutto in un periodo di crisi, offrendo l’opportunità ai talenti più meritevoli di trasferire le proprie competenze alla ricerca applicata e concludere un percorso virtuoso”.

Il progetto avviato con il master “Project Management e Sviluppo Internazionale” del Sole 24Ore, prevede tre moduli principali: Cooperazione e sviluppo internazionale; Internazionalizzazione, Scelte strategiche d’impresa e marketing, e Progettazione a livello europeo e internazionale.

“Abbiamo deciso di attivare una collaborazione con la Business School del Sole 24Ore – afferma Pierluigi d’Agata, Direttore di Confindustria Assafrica & Mediterraneo – perché questa ci permette di dare la possibilità alle nostre associate, come Condor Group, di ospitare giovani allievi del master per uno stage in azienda. Con un taglio fortemente operativo, l’obiettivo è di formare figure professionali competenti, per sviluppare il processo di internazionalizzazione specie delle piccole e medie imprese italiane”.

L’azienda, dotata di un Centro di ricerca, sviluppo e controllo qualità, è presente anche in Maghreb, Serbia, Romania, Russia, Ucraina, Bosnia Erzegovina, Arabia Saudita, Qatar ed Emirati Arabi.

“Per essere competitive nei mercati globali – a parlare è Riccardo Resciniti, Direttore Scientifico del master CorCe Campania – oggi le imprese devono essere in grado di pensare internazionale e questo richiede risorse e competenze specializzate. L’attenzione rivolta da Condor al nostro corso di alta formazione, quale partner, ne testimonia con evidenza la sensibilità verso queste tematiche”.

Avviata anche la collaborazione con il corso in Lingue e culture stranieredel Dipartimento di Studi Umanistici (DipSUm), presso l’Università degli studi di Salerno.

“Per permettere ai laureati un efficace inserimento nel mondo del lavoro – racconta Sabrina Galano, Delegata Tirocini e Placement del Dipartimento di Studi Umanistici – il corso di studi opera un’intensa attività di orientamento in uscita, attraverso la stipula di convenzioni con enti e aziende qualificate del territorio, in modo da permettere il flessibile adeguamento del  laureato ad una pluralità di mansioni professionali negli ambiti della comunicazione e dei servizi, dell’interculturalismo e dell’internazionalizzazione, nonché ad attività nell’area economica”.

Condor Group ha già attivato una serie di convenzioni anche con il Politecnico di Milano e con gli atenei di Benevento e Napoli, per favorire la ricerca e lo sviluppo di prodotti innovativi.

Physical risks factors in construction job sites

Noise, vibration, manual handling of the loads and open air activities represent the main risk factors for construction workers’ health.

Statistics underlines the dangers to consider to execute the necessary measures and prevent any job site accident.

In fact, there are many factors of physical risk, starting from the noise: the functioning of construction machineries and equipments used in construction produces high level of acoustic pollution exposing all the job site operators.

Another problem is related to vibrations: the use of portable vibration equipment and construction machineries and diggers expose workers to a high risk for mechanical vibrations transmitted to the human body through the handle of the vibrating equipment, and through the feet if on the platform or the gluteus if the operator is sitting.

Exposition to those vibrations can cause disturbs or injuries to upper arts, particularly vascular, osseous-joint, neurological, muscular disturbs, or injuries to the spinal column, particularly lumbar pain and backbone traumas, especially if in presence of cold weather and humidity.

Particularly present in the job sites also the risks dues to the manual handling of loads, exposing workers to disturbs and muscle-skeletal diseases from bio-mechanical overload of the vertebral column and of upper and lower arts.

Open air works, even more during hot seasons, can determine a warmth load that the body eliminates by increasing perspiration and heart rate. The higher is the warmth load, the more frequent those happenings can be, becoming so relevant to cause true diseases, as it could be heatstroke or heat-fainting.

In a firm technologically advanced, to invest in security cannot be considered just as a possibility but needs to be a strong point, both on the ethical and professional point of view.

Condor is involved in projects responding to a triple necessity: to ensure the total reliability to its partners, to respect the main European standards in the field of security and to prevent potential working accidents.

Thanks to an efficient Technical Department, beating heart of the company, and to an efficient Research, Development and Quality Insurance centre , who fine tuned the Risk Free patent, Condor proposes a wide selection of products for the Infrastructural, Industrial, Residential construction and for reconstruction, offering the greatest guarantee in terms of security, costs and production time.

Condor finds growth potential in Algeria

The Batimatec International Exhibition of Building, Construction Material and Public Works show in Algiers took place in May.

A company spokesman for Italian scaffolding provider Condor Group said Algeria presented great opportunities thanks to a solid economy. “The macroeconomic framework is solid and continues to be characterised, especially in financial terms, by positive indicators.

“The [country’s] current investment plan, in fact, is focused on infrastructure development: roads, highways, civil and industrial infrastructures, supermarkets, sports centres and construction.”

The Algerian government, in powere since September 2012, prioritised the construction of 1 million residential properties, according to Condor. “In addition, the second half of 2013 marked the operational phase of these projects, which were undertaken in all major cities of the country,” said the spokesman.

There were more than 1000 exhibitors at the 17th edition of the Batimatec show, with an Italian pavilion of 1000 square metres. The MENA region  – Middle East and North Africa – is of particular interest to Condor which has offices located in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, Bucharest, Romania and Moscow, Russia.

Visitors to the Condor stand were especially interested in formwork and tower structures, said the company.

LA CULTURA DELLA SICUREZZA PER TUTELARE LA SALUTE E PREVENIRE INCIDENTI

Sempre più numerosi gli incidenti professionali dovuti ogni anno a crolli di palchi o a carenze nella prevenzione, nell’ambito di manifestazioni, spettacoli e fiere.

Per far fronte a questa emergenza, il 21 febbraio scorso l’ex ministro del Lavoro e delle Politiche Sociali, Enrico Giovannini, ha firmato il decreto interministeriale sulla sicurezza dei palchi e degli allestimenti. Un decreto che colma un vuoto normativo in materia di salute, durante l’allestimento e il disallestimento di palchi per spettacoli musicali, teatrali e cinematografici, e di strutture per manifestazioni fieristiche.

In particolare, sono stati finalmente chiariti i casi in cui è doveroso attivare l’organizzazione prevista per i cantieri temporanei o mobili e, di conseguenza, quelli in cui è necessario l’ausilio del coordinatore della sicurezza, sia in fase di progettazione che di esecuzione di lavori, per la tutela della salute e della sicurezza degli operatori che svolgono la loro attività in questo settore.

Condor Group – industria specializzata nella progettazione e produzione di ponteggi, casseforme per pareti e per solai, strutture di sostegno, blindaggi per scavi in sicurezza, strutture per lo spettacolo, tribune e palchi – ha accolto favorevolmente il provvedimento, in linea con la politica della governance in tema di responsabilità sociale.

L’azienda, infatti, da anni ha avviato un percorso virtuoso, investendo sulla cultura della prevenzione per ridurre il rischio di infortuni e migliorare le condizioni di lavoro.

Da questo punto di vista, ha già realizzato due brevetti internazionali: il Risk Free, un ponteggio a telai che consente al personale addetto al montaggio ed allo smontaggio, di operare in sicurezza anche senza supporto di dispositivi anticaduta; ed il sistema Multicom, che permette di realizzare senza rischi ponteggi di facciata di ogni tipo, torri di sostegno o di getto per solai, scale pubbliche con altezze fino a 60 metri, coperture fino a luci di 30 metri, passerelle pedonali, scale pubbliche e di emergenza, palchi e tribune per manifestazioni sportive o di spettacolo, oltre ad opere speciali.

Ma le iniziative messe in campo da Condor non finiscono qui. Dopo aver ideato le casseforme per solai con montaggio in sicurezza per evitare il rischio di cadute, all’interno del suo Centro di ricerca, sviluppo e controllo qualità, è stato costituito anche un gruppo di lavoro dedicato a progetti formativi e sperimentali, con l’obiettivo di lanciare sul mercato prodotti sempre più innovativi, conformi ai principali standard europei di sicurezza.
