(SR) Standards
Zallaf Social Responsibility (SR) standards always control or/and illuminate any potential Social Responsibility (SR) Risks/Impacts pertinent to Zallaf’s Business/Operations/Projects, and always resource Zallaf’s SR staff to carry out their SR duties efficiently.
Our standards always report Zallaf’s SR/CSR activities and any data to Zallaf’s leadership, the NOC (HSE/SD Departments) and to any Libyan regulatory bodies, and always assess SR Risks
“Impact Assessment covering social aspects”
And manage them during operations and projects’ lifecycle; Our approach always consider Zallaf’s operations social impacts on communities/stakeholders in Zallaf’s business decisions, always ensure continuous and respectful engagement with communities/stakeholders throughout Zallaf business and project lifecycles, and always minimize operational negative impacts and maximize positive impacts sustainably.
