ESTA ES LA RAZÓN
Desde el principio, nuestro objetivo ha sido tener un impacto positivo en el medio ambiente y las comunidades donde operamos. Este objetivo nos exige construir un nuevo modelo que sea sostenible: Social, ambiental y económicamente. Es por eso que estamos comprometidos a adoptar un enfoque audaz para el aprendizaje continuo.

LUCHANDO POR LA EXCELENCIA
Ética
FFC is committed to the highest industry standards and ensuring meaningful engagement with leaders in the industry as well as adherence to international standards and best practices as well as clearly defining our policies, procedures and practices.
Estándares Internacionales y Mejores Prácticas
Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible de la ONU
FFC apoya ocho de los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible de la ONU. Estos objetivos se relacionan con la pobreza, la desigualdad, el cambio climático, la degradación ambiental y la paz y la justicia.
Certificaciones Forestales Internacionales de Terceros
Actualmente, FFC cumple con los criterios de silvicultura sostenible del Forest Stewardship Counsel (FSC). Tenemos la intención de asegurar la certificación FSC antes de la primera cosecha comercial en 2021. Además, donde los volúmenes se venderán en el mercado de bioenergía, se incluirá la certificación del Programa de Biomasa Sostenible (SBP).
Normas de Desempeño de la CFI
FFC se ha relacionado con consultores externos quienes nos están asistiendo para asegurar que todas las licencias y permisos necesarios sean obtenidos con el objetivo de cumplir los requerimientos de Normas de Desempeño de la CFI. Por ejemplo, estamos comprometidos a cumplir completamente con el estándar cinco de desempeño de la CFI, requiriendo compensación a todos los individuos desplazados por sus operaciones.

Código de Conducta de FFC
Our Code of Conduct acts as our overall human resources policy, incorporating issues of fair treatment, non-discrimination, and compliance with national employment regulations.
All FFC contractors, who will employ most of our workforce, must follow this Code. The Code clearly specifies that contractors must treat their employees in compliance with Colombian law. FFC verifies compliance on a regular basis through contractor audits. In the case of any contractor defaulting, we will seek the appropriate remedies, up to and including termination of the contract. A formal employee grievance mechanism has been developed, which is also in compliance with Colombian law. Employees can voice grievances using this mechanism, including alleged safety concerns or instances of discrimination of any kind. These policies have been communicated and explained to our staff, and through this we aim to uphold and further embed our values of respect, ethical conduct, responsibility, collaboration, effectiveness, bravery, innovation, and transparency. Management regularly engages with the workforce to ascertain if there are any grievances and regularly conducts team building activities.
