Organization
In mid 2022 the intense work done with the students of SDM (School of Higer Education) of the University of Bergamo has led us to a renewed organization structure who wants to enhance each Company Business Units and promote a new workgroup-based model:

• WIT (Work Improvement Team): composed by Engineering Managers, Project Managers and Quality Assurance Manager working together on internal process improvements and Junior Engineers training;
• CHAMPIONS: a group of people who have the role of supporting the Work Improvement Team in improvement diffusion within each department.

Training:
With respect to 2021, the training attention in 2022 has more than doubled. Within the most relevant training initiatives we would point out the ones dedicated to ESG topics, which took shape in 2022 through the first Sustainability Raising Awareness Workshop hosted and supported by the Innovation District Kilometro Rosso and ENEA, the Italian National Agency for New Technologies, Energy and Sustainable Economic Development.

Within this landscape, dedicated training sessions was held in Cyber Security and Continuous Improvement with the support of Kaizen Institute; the main objective for the near future is to raise awareness of these topics, for a more in-depth insight into Company processes and sustainable path.

TRAINING AND PROFESSIONAL GROWTH HIGHLIGHTS:
“Skill matrix” trainig methos: a real tool for technical and soft skills assessment for Engineers and Project Managers.

Relations with Local institutions

University of Brescia
University of Bergamo
Technical and Professional Institutes (Bergamo)

The importance of fostering the cooperation with local Universities and Technical Institutes has grown significantly, until becoming one of the main topics of our HR strategy and approach.

As in previous years, in 2022 we took part of University of Brescia Career Day, where we met lot of brilliant new-graduates and one of them currently joins our team working on his graduation Thesis.

Then, the Agreement signed with the “Lombardy Higher Technical Institute for new mechanical and mechatronic technologies” for the activation of curricular training, is aimed at introducing young students in the mechanical field to the professional world.

People & Sustainability
In 2022, we have started on a voluntary basis a formal path towards Sustainable Reporting and in end 2022 we have been able to release our first Sustainability Report.

This represents a concrete achievement in the measurement and contribution to a much aware and fair business and we have identified our priorities in Social landscape which includes alongside Health, safety and security of employees and external workers, the development of people and attractiomn of talents, equal opportunities and non-discrimination, employees well-being and human rights, as well as the relationship with the local areas.

Within this framework, we still continue to promote small but impactful actions aimed at the enhancement of an inclusive working environment as well as the promotion of dialogue, culture and healnty habits.

During 2022, Remazel’s major efforts on HSE have been concentrated in Remazel Shipyard Area, with the aim to enhance the both the organization and the activities. Actually, the local team as well as the project workload have increased significantly, and a close attention to workers health and safety was needed.

Alongside with these operative provisions, the HSE team has worked on the alignment of the informatic management systems and on periodical training sessions. At this regard, a new method of training has been successfully tested and consolidated; this 30-minutes training break on-field have been useful for a better attention and diffusion of HSE best practices.

In 2022, the Company recorded no. 1 injury of low degree of severity.

Starting from 2022, in accordance with the Sustainability Path that Remazel has decided to pursue, the Health, safety and security of workers represents one of the priority material topic of the ESG landscape.

In this context, we are committed in strengthening our attention also on the Environmental aspects such as Energy consumption, Atmospheric emissions reduction, Waste management and Sustainable innovation and product design. A major attention to these topics is, today, mainly managed through Employees consciousness-raising with the aim to increase the engagement of Remazel supply chain and stakeholders all.

A deeper representation of Remazel HSE culture and activities are outlined in detail in our Sustainability Report 2022.

Develop and promote the relationship with our Territory is one of the pillars of Remazel Corporate culture. The pragmatic approach we aim to encourage within this landscape, deep its roots in the awareness that the Companies all can play an important role in the support and enhancement of local Institutions and facilities.

In early 2022, the tragic situation of the Ukrainian population caused by the Russia-Ukraine conflict, could not be ignored; the very first actions have been taken in Trieste (TS, Italy) area, where every day hundreds of people were crossing the border to find refuge and help. A collection point for basic necessities were promptly activated and thanks to the support of Remazel employees and cooperators we were able to contribute even if in small way to Fondazione Caritas Trieste call-for-action.

This prompt response could not be managed without the help and activity of our people and for this reason we deeply thank the goodness of Remazel team all.

Alongside these valuable and contingent actions, Remazel still continues to support and share new experiences with the social cooperative L’Impronta, a local Association based few kilometres far from Remazel HQ In Chiuduno (Bg), which is engaged in promoting social inclusion among youngsters affected by disabilities and fragilities.

“Through the active involvement of the local community, the intention is to offer also to people with fragilities, in particular young people, the opportunity to live as active citizens and, on the other hand, contribute to the growth of a more sensitive, attentive and responsible community towards all its members.”

L’Impronta team

Through this Project Remazel wants to reduce the gap between Company itself and the local community, by promoting the importance of cooperation and inclusivity. This principle has been the starting point of the “ESG-Inspired” workshop dedicated to Remazel employees and called “D&I – Company and Community, meet us halfway”, that will be held in May 2023 with the support of University of Bergamo, the social cooperative L’Impronta and the Botanic Garder of Chiuduno (BG).

At the end of the meeting, Remazel team will have the chance to experience the planting of pumpkins together with L’Impronta group.

Remazel is strongly committed to safeguard corporate assets and financial reporting reliability while improving internal processes and maintaining compliance with regulations and Group companies’ procedures.

Remazel believes that an adequate risk assessment and management can positively affect the achievement of the objectives and the value of the Group.

The Group’s organizational and management model involves, with different roles, the administrative bodies, the supervisory bodies, the control bodies, the management and all the staff, inspired by the principles contained in the Code of Ethics and national and international best practices.

Currently, risk analysis and management does not include an integrated assessment of ESG risks, but for the future Remazel is committed to their inclusion and monitoring.

However, ESG criteria and risks were substantially considered during the transition to the global offshore business.

The assessment of the different risks summarized below is constantly being reviewed and updated by Remazel:

• Risk associated with extraordinary events outside Remazel’s control and company purposes.
  Such as, during 2022, risk associated with the impact of Covid-19 on Remazel’s activities, in particular the activities related to the production site in China, and the huge market disruption arising from the conflict in Ukraine (lately evolved on a world-wide scale). General and Special Terms and Conditions have been put on rediscussion in order to avoid application of liquidated damages and to review contractual prices, while COVID 19 remain timely and fully monitored considering eventual new needs arising from the evolution of the pandemic itself;
• Risk associated with financial and market criticalities.
  Such as risk related to oil price trends, risk associated with fluctuation in working capital, risk associated with the volatility of economic and financial results. With specific reference to oil price, preparing estimates and settings prices are the result of an accurate, articulated and punctual exercise which the Group, within every department, continue to develop constantly;
• Risk associated with the supply chain.
  Having considered the huge relevance and consistency of all main suppliers involved within Remazel’s projects, the risk of an uncompliant performance could become significatively negative. To avoid and/or reduce at the lowest possible level this kind of risk, Remazel has an organized qualification and selection system, improved new tools, settled various audits and training programs, shared Model 231 in full (accepted by suppliers), including the Code of Ethics.

After the intense work done in 2022, if we have to think about our 2023, we would say that it will be “the year of change”; change in mentality and approach towards an increasingly global dimension, for a stronger development of our international organization and process.

Excellent results have been achieved together with REMAC Srl (Remazel Engineering and Cartubi JV) for the steel works of no. 2 important projects for Offshore Wind application. The main goal for 2023 is the one to enlarge the workshop area and consolidate the ongoing achievements.
