Qatar Steel has recently conducted a series of training workshops on sustainable development designed to expand employees’ understanding on sustainability and the company’s direction in the future.
The workshops also underlined the role of sustainability from a global and regional context and its implementation at sector level through the Qatar Energy & Industry Sector Sustainability (QEISS) Programme launched by HE the Minister of Energy and Industry Dr Mohamed bin Saleh al-Sada.
The training programme, which was delivered in partnership with Sustainability Excellence, was attended by executive management and key staff members across the organisation.
Qatar Steel managing director and general manager Ali bin Hassan al-Muraikhi said, “In all our efforts, we will strive to build upon our past achievements to improve our sustainability performance for the future. As we continue to grow, we are committed to making sustainability a part of our everyday work culture.”
Al-Muraikhi noted that the training programme was part of Qatar Steel’s commitment to sustainability management and reporting as an integral part of its business strategy.
The core of Qatar Steel’s sustainability framework is “Making Steel Matter,” a company slogan that captures the essence of Qatar Steel’s six sustainability objectives: contributing to Qatar’s development, reducing environmental impact, ensuring a safe and healthy work environment, developing a high-performing and motivated team, instilling good governance and accountability, and achieving profitable growth.
