OUR VALUE CREATION | Natural capital
Our Sustainability and Environmental
Corporate Policies, which are available
on Rede D'Or São Luiz's website, are
the underpinnings of our sustainability
management. We have mapped the
most relevant environmental risks
in our operations and implemented
projects to mitigate them. To verify legal
compliance, adherence to the plan and
achievement of proposed environmental
management goals, we perform regular
environmental audits, both internal
and external. When we identify non-
compliances, they are classified in
accordance with their risk (critical,
high, medium and low) and their roots;
audit reports are forwarded to the
units' officers, who then send them to
the managers, who are responsible for
preparing the respective action plans to
address such non-compliances.
Systematically performed since 2012,
internal environmental audits are
focused on nursing and care delivery,
healthcare hospitality, pharmacy,
maintenance, nutrition and laboratories.
In 2021, we conducted more than 170
internal environmental audits at more
than 80 units (hospitals, oncology
clinics, clinic analysis labs and others),
through which we have identified the
need for 3,014 corrective actions, and
only 4% of them have been considered
high or critical risks. We also performed
31 analysis of architecture projects,
in which we verify if projects meet
legal and technical environmental and
sanitary requirements, allowing us to
develop corrective actions still in the
project conception and representation
phase of the buildings.
We have also conducted 15 technical
visits for environmental diagnosis units
acquired by Rede D'Or São Luiz, called
integration audits. 12 of these audits
have been conducted at hospital units
(learn more on page 110). Furthermore,
we actively participated in 30 technical
analysis and 10 visits at the operation
sites of service providers that perform
waste collection, transportation,
treatment and final disposal to comply
with bidding processes organized by the
Indirect Supplies team.
We have a Licensing department that
controls and monitors licenses for all
Rede D'Or São Luiz's units. In 2021, the
department had 9,401 licenses under its
management. Over the past year, 1,353
licenses were renewed and 35 new
ones granted. Corporate and
construction licenses are addressed in
our internal policies.
Since 2020 we have been signatories
of UN's Global Compact, taking on the
commitment to implement publicly
its 10 principles and transparently in
our business strategy. We are already
engaged in the Action for Climate
platform from Brazil Network, which
addresses SDG 7 and 13, and develops
sector and themed initiatives related to
climate, with projects related to energy
and forests.
