The sites audited for SafeGuard certification have comprehensive safety measures, which have been supplemented by the measures adopted against the pandemics, namely sanitation equipment meant to ensure health safety in all spaces and surfaces down to the last detail. Our approach towards health safety consists of special methods such as: the use of ozone generators and ultraviolet lamps, famous for their effectiveness against viruses and bacteria, but also through our partnership with specialized third party companies that ensure the disinfection of the premises according to a high frequency schedule. To ensure Cris-Tim team’s health safety and security we have provided full work equipment and a safety work and transport environment.
