Our Sustainable Development Policy is one of the most important elements of the development strategy of company. The mission of the firm assumed realization of all stages of activity taking into consideration aspects of environmental protection.

The petitioner uses information related to actions taken in aid of environmental protection in his own promotional and marketing strategy. Information about goals and actions in that range are available on the website in the Environmental Policy section. There is information about: continuous adaptation of production processes to specific requirements, actions taken in the field of legal regulation of environmental protection, actions taken in aid of disposal wastes problem including hazardous wastes. The expression of this is the fact that HYBRES has become major shareholder of EKO HYBRES company. EKO HYBRES has implemented innovative technology for recovery of primary materials and energy from electronic and electrical wastes and materials using plasma destruction. On the basis of agreement EKO HYBRES complete recycling of all wastes generated by petitioner. Product life cycle management is one of the company's the most important challenges. It is necessary to eliminate or minimize the amount of wastes at every stage of production, sale and running. Special solutions which have do influence on increasing efficiency (at minimum material and energy consumption) are applied at the stage of designing new products. The company continuously adapts production to environmental requirements and has realized inter alia investment projects as a part of which lead-free production technologies have been implemented. Heat produced in technological processes is utilized for production hall heating.

Factory building has a low overall heat-transfer coefficient. There are temperature sensors in the rooms.

Hybres implemed equal opportunities policy in the scope of employment and this is reflected in company operation. Bequests affecting implementation of that policy are specified in the work regulations and selection procedures. Reference to regulation notices is included in the scope of functions of all company workers. Action which supports realization of equal opportunities policy in scope of employment of graduate is opportunity to be in practice. We organize apprenticeships for students from technical collages, students of Rzeszow University of Technology and students from Germany (Fochhochschule Sudwestfalen-Iserlohn).

As a result of applying an equal opportunities policy in our firm currently employs 43 workers including 13 woman, 3 disabled persons and 7 who are over 50 year old. It is the intention that non-discrimination rules mentioned above will be improved and applied during recruitment of new workers.

The petitioner considers environmental criteria during realization of purchase and cooperation with subcontractors. According to the current management system of our company all orders of materials and components are realized based on defined standards, i.e. EU directive RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances). This directive restricts the use of six hazardous materials in the manufacture of various types of electronic and electrical equipment. The main goal is to decrease the number of hazardous materials which penetrate the environment. These materials are: lead (Pb), mercury (Hg), cadmium (Cd), hexavalent chromium (Cr⁶⁺), polybrominated biphenyls (PBB), polybrominated diphenyl ether (PBDE). Despite the fact that HYBRES isn't directly under the RoHS directive (we don't manufacture end products and don't release them) given the sustainable development strategy management have made the decision about appliance of requirements on suppliers of materials and componets.
