Altair Chemical places individual and social responsibility at the core of its corporate vision, recognizing its employees as its most valuable resource and investing in their well-being, health and safety, and professional growth.
Fully aware of the importance of strong relationships with local communities and institutions, the company is committed to fostering a culture of trust and collaboration, actively contributing to the social and economic development of the local areas where it operates.
Altair Chemical prioritizes employee well-being through contractual protections, corporate welfare plans, and access to healthcare and pension schemes.
Training is a fundamental pillar and a key element of professional development. Employees regularly participate in training sessions designed to equip them with the skills and knowledge required to meet their goals.
The relationship with the workforce is built on the full recognition of individual value and respect for diversity: the company prohibits all forms of discrimination based on age, gender, sexual orientation, health status, ethnicity, nationality, political opinion, or religious beliefs.
Altair Chemical’s health and safety management system is certified under UNI ISO 45001:2018, ensuring compliance with Italy’s Consolidated Safety Law (Legislative Decree 81/2008) and the Seveso III Directive (Legislative Decree 105/2015) concerning the control of major accident hazards involving dangerous substances.
In accordance with these regulations, each production site has established a Prevention and Protection Service (PPS) which includes qualified personnel, and both internal and external resources. Their role is to prevent and manage occupational hazards, actively involving employees in the evaluation and continuous improvement of safety measures.
A concrete example of this commitment is the company’s asbestos removal plan:
Energy-efficiency upgrade of the heating system through the installation of a high-efficiency condensing system, fully compatible with the architectural constraints of this historic building. The project helps reduce methane consumption and CO₂ emissions, improving the overall energy performance in the theatre.
Since 2019, Altair Chemical has invested €1.6 million in the construction of the new Saline di Volterra stadium, a sports complex designed for the youth and broader community. Through the “Sport Bonus” tax incentive, the company supports this initiative to foster social inclusion and promote a healthy lifestyle in a modern and welcoming environment.
The renovation of the corporate cafeteria at the Pieve Vergonte site has been completed. It is now fully accessible, not only to employees but also to students and the local community for special events.
Altair Chemical provided financial support for the securing and restoration of Volterra’s medieval walls, which had collapsed due to a landslide. The contribution enabled immediate repairs to protect a heritage site of great historical value.
