Construcciones Yamaro - An example in the building industry

The construction industry and its environmental impact

The production of industrial, organic and inorganic waste is associated with the building industry. Most of the organizations that work in this area do not take care of the environment when they do building works. However, the enterprise Yamaro.

It is not very common to talk about corporate social responsibility in the construction industry. This sector is normally related to deforestation and the environmental impact caused by this practice. However, some organizations that labor in this area are becoming aware of its impact on the environment. An example of this is Yamaro.

Construcciones Yamaro is an enterprise dedicated to the building industry in Venezuela. It has an experience of more that 40 years in this area, more specifically in the road sector.

The enterprise has been devoted to preserving the environment. Each time they close a deal with a client, there is a section in the contract that states all parties involved are committed to recovering the areas surrounding the building that will be constructed.

It is very important for Yamaro to contribute to the preservation of the environment. According to statistics, the building industry is the main responsible for damaging at least the half of the natural resources.  Also, is pointed out for the production of industrial, organic and inorganic waste left after the construction of a civil work.

Yamaro does not use any product that could affect the atmosphere or its labor personnel. At the moment of carrying out a construction project, despite its magnitude, the enterprise does not use products that could generate contaminating residues.

Yamaro is concerned about the consequences those waste could cause in the environment because it can affect people, animals, and plants next to the areas where they develop the building works.

In the building sector, Yamaro is a reference to corporate social responsibility because of the environmental care the enterprise shows with the practices incorporated into its building activities. This enterprise is an example to follow in Venezuela. For these reasons, other enterprises that labor in this area are incorporating these practices in their daily works.
