Integrated
Management System
UPM Forestal Oriental has
implemented an Integrated
Management System (IMS) for the
development and implementation
of the plans, methods, actions and
reviews of all of its operations,
ensuring compliance at all times
with standards relating to quality,
occupational health, safety and the
environment.
Through this system, the company
acquires an organisation through
interrelated processes focussing
on the customer, both internal and
external. Forestry operations are
governed by three fundamental
processes: Management, timber
availability and timber supply.
The IMS also actively integrates
all staff and creates a decision-
making model based on records and
measurements and on the integration
of suppliers; in such a way as to
create value and implement a system
of continuous improvement.
The IMS includes and consolidates
the plans, methods, actions
and revisions of the following
systems through a unique working
methodology:
Quality Management Systems
(ISO 9001:2008) Environmental
Management Systems (ISO
14001:2004)
Occupational Health and Safety
Management Systems (OHSAS
18001:2007)
