There is a schedule of measures to improve the working conditions of workers, as well as environmental safety: upgrade the supply and exhaust ventilation, workplaces, open additional offices. Recently, the independent Chui Environmental Laboratory conducted a comprehensive inspection and confirmed that the tailings of the factory are also classified as the safest (hazard class V)."

The compliance with sanitary and environmental standards on Jeruy site is monitored daily. Unparalleled through the whole country, the tailings dump was built using modern technologies and composite materials. Its eco-furnaces deactivate production waste.

The road machinery fleet with 90 units has a minimal impact on the environment.
