Our consistent effort to preserve social, ecological and cultural protection is an integral part of our activities, which are always in line with fundamental human rights.

We apply environmental rules, promote business ethos and contribute to the mitigation of social inequality; we promote and encourage a corporate culture of respect for future generations and faith in a better world. The long-term  comparssion of InterMed towards Social Responsibility issues, as well as the strategic plan of its actions, are a concrete proof of the high priority given in its social dimension.

Being committed on this, we evaluate past efforts and develop initiatives driven by three “Fundamental Principles” and five “Areas of Responsibility”, so that all our actions are carefully planned to support and intensify our Vision, Mission and Values.

1. Alignment of all actions with the Corporate Strategy that aims at maximizing the Value for all stakeholders (Shareholders, Customers, Human Resources, Society, Environment, Employees), as well as creating a Competitive Advantage.

2.Integration of all actions into our everyday life. We are actively involved. We recycle, we reduce energy and paper consumption. We protect our intellectual property. We promote  the principles of rational prescribing and provide scientific information of high quality. We participate in social actions towards vulnerable groups. We become volunteers. We provide access to pharmaceutical and sanitary material, through collaborations with NGOs. We promote public awareness.

3. Participation. We select our partners (clients, suppliers, health professionals, government agencies, etc.) with strict criteria, trying to maintain a high level of contact with business partners that our values converge.

Based on our corporate mission, we take action in three areas:

Research & Development. We carry out research to develop breakthrough products that combine the latest advances in Medicine and Cosmetology using modern pharmaceutical technology. We encourage the support exchange of know-how and collaboration between our researches and other scientists, aiming at the best results.

Ensuring access to pharmaceutical and sanitary material. We work with non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and we take initiatives so as to ensure that in natural disasters, financial difficulties and social upheavals, our fellow people will not be deprived of pharmaceutical and medical care.

Raising awareness on health issues. We aim to raise awareness on health issues (such as specific conditions and infections), and at the same time educate people on how to deal with the sufferers.

2. Environmental management & sustainable development

Our priority is to conduct all our activities with respect the environment, preventing environmental pollution, acting in absolute compliance with the national environmental legislation.

In this context, we make use of best available techniques to reduce pollution and our environmental footprint. In order to achieve the above commitments, InterMed has successfully implemented since 2006 the Environmental Management System according to the international ISO 14001 standard.

This system ensures :

Constant monitoring of the impact of the Company's activities on the natural environment and the necessary preventive and corrective actions.

Objectives, measurable targets and corresponding programs for the continuous improvement of the Company's environmental performance.

Communication between all involved parties - employees, suppliers, local community, authorities etc.
