SARMED participated for the fourth consecutive year in the assessment of its corporate social responsibility performance by EcoVadis and received the “Gold Recognition Level” distinction.

EcoVadis is an international platform that allows companies to monitor the sustainability performance of their suppliers. Its methodology covers over 75,000 suppliers annually from 200 sectors and 150 countries. The system analyzes and evaluates the performance of the company in four main categories: Environment, Labor and Human Rights, Fair Business Practices and Sustainable Procurement.

In 2021 SARMED scored higher compared to 2020 and was ranked among the top 8% of companies in the sector worldwide. Its performance places the company above the industry average in all four categories.

This result is recognition and re-confirmation of SARMED Top Management and employees commitment to the ethical and socially sustainable provision of services, which is captured through four main pillars: Working Conditions and Standards, Health and Safety, Business Practice and Integrity, Environment
