Zaporizhstal JSC has successfully passed the second supervising audit on conformity of the Integrated Management System to standards 14001, OHSAS 18001, ILO-OSH 2001 and recertification under standard ISO 9001. “Bureau Veritas Certification Ukraine” experts have not revealed any discrepancies to the standards, having specified only improvements in separate areas.

As an unusual bonus for excellent work Zaporizhstal has received an additional certificate confirming that management job with consumers corresponds to the international standard. On December 14th the representative of “Bureau Veritas”, Dr.Sci.Tech. Vitaliy Tsopa in a ceremonial atmosphere handed over two certificates ISO 9001 and ISO 10002:2004 to the First Deputy of Chairman of Board, Technical Director Alexander Putnoki.

As Vitaliy Tsopa has stated, he was impressed by the social orientation which the management of our Works shows. He informed that during inspection auditors have received indisputable proof that work with consumers at the Works has been organized top-level. Zaporizhstal has absolutely deservedly received the bonus certificate.

Alexander Putnoki stated that the greatest award for the whole staff of Zaporizhstal JSC is that the Integrated Management System functions. This was confirmed by the second audit which was carried out practically without remarks. The unplanned certificate, certifying the high level of work with consumers, speaks for itself. The phrase “The Consumer is always right” is up-to-date at all times. “Bureau Veritas” has considered that today we are paying sufficient attention to this problem and have received good results. I think that out of two suppliers of identical products the preference will be given to the one who has such a certificate. It is a big plus", — said A. Putnoki.
