The Ansaldo STS Group is involved in environmental and safety issues under two aspects:
• as an ordinary manufacturer which is committed to pursuing environment and workers’ health
and safety protection policies with the intent not to limit itself to the simple compliance with
existing laws, regulations and directives but to pursue a continuous improvement of the
environmental and safety performance related to its products and production processes;
• as a supplier of rail transport systems, which is conscious of the fact that the offer of
increasingly advanced, safe and reliable railway traffic control and automation products drives the
rapid development of the most environmentally and safety friendly transport system currently
available, thus attracting a higher number of users of freight and passenger transport services.
