Ethics

Corporate social responsibility 

For Crisden, Corporate Social Responsibility is embodied in the ability to integrate its business activities with respect and protection for all, demonstrating an ongoing commitment to safeguarding environmental resources and their preservation for future generations. In other words, its actions aim to pursue its business while considering the respect due to all living beings and inanimate objects as the goal of its actions and not as a means to profit. This means doing one's job well and with dignity, respecting the rules, but also, and above all, being inspired by shared principles and values. The ethical action pursued by the company therefore aims to be a rational incentive to seek to understand not only what is right to do, but also why it is necessary to do so.
Legislative Decree No. 231 of June 8, 2001, introduced into the Italian legal system the system of administrative liability of entities for certain crimes committed by directors, managers, or employees (Predicate Crimes) in the interest or to the benefit of the entity itself. Crisden srl, with a Board of Directors resolution of January 7, 2021, adopted its own Organization, Management, and Control Model in accordance with this legislation. A Supervisory Board was also established, tasked with overseeing the functioning and compliance of the aforementioned Model and ensuring its updating. The Compliance and Governance System is also completed with the adoption of a Code of Ethics, which describes the principles and moral values ​​that inspire Crisden srl and characterize its activities in its various organizational and operational components.
Environment
At Crisden, environmental awareness is a way of life that can be seen in every action we take, both inside and outside the company.
Work
Curiosity and the desire to always push ourselves further, without ever feeling satisfied with the results achieved, are the driving force behind our work.
Culture
The drive towards the future is the key to our culture. Because continuous improvement is not just a slogan, but a promise kept.

Welfare

Corporate welfare program

CRISDEN promotes its daily commitment to providing three-year personal services, providing employees with access to a range of goods and services designed to meet needs that do not directly concern company life and work performance, but rather the employee's personal and family life.
School
With school comes the numerous expenses that families face. Corporate welfare programs aimed at children's educational needs include: textbooks, transportation, meals, and study abroad. Other educational expenses not strictly related to school, such as nursery schools, summer and winter camps, and playrooms, are also eligible for reimbursement.
Education and training services
CRISDEN has chosen to provide its workers with corporate welfare measures for specific educational and training purposes, aimed at the employee's family members, by reimbursing such expenses or purchasing these goods and services directly.
Assistance to elderly family members
Considering that approximately 70% of seniors are unable to afford the cost of family care, corporate welfare is an important tool for families to support, assist, and care for the elderly.

Waste sorting
Waste sorting

Emilia-Romagna is one of Italy's most efficient regions for waste sorting, with data placing Reggio Emilia among the top performers. Last year, according to the latest data provided by Iren, the regional capital reached 80% of total waste sorting, and in some municipalities, the rate reached nearly 90%.

Plastic Free
Plastic Free

"Plastic Free" plastic is a material that lasts hundreds of years and whose production consumes significant resources. We don't want to condemn it, but we need to use it wisely. CRISDEN, for its part, has decided to take action to eliminate single-use plastic within its offices.

Circular economy
Circular economy

L’economia circolare è un sistema in cui tutte le attività sono organizzate in modo che i rifiuti di qualcuno diventino risorse per qualcun’altro. Nell’economia lineare, invece, terminato il consumo termina anche il ciclo del prodotto che diventa rifiuto, costringendo la catena economica a riprendere continuamente lo stesso schema: estrazione, produzione, consumo, smaltimento.
