Work protection
Jelsingrad Livar steel foundry ltd. Banja Luka is carrying out significant investments for replacement of old and introduction of new plants and technologies aiming to improve working conditions in production.

 

When the works are carried out and the new plants are put into operation (industrial furnaces, automated moulding line, sanding device, annealing furnace etc.), we are starting with replacement of the existing dust catching system in the melting shop plant, moulding shop and cleaning room, and we are introducing the new system which will include all polluters in the foundry.
Besides providing better working conditions in the shop, the new dust catching system will also provide air filtering before it is released in the atmosphere, by which the emissions of polluted substances released into the air will be reduced to minimum, that is, it will be within the allowed limits according to the Law on air protection.
New plants put into operation should considerably contribute to increase production, improvement of the product quality, more rational production, as well as to the high level of safety and better working conditions, which will lead to a more humane and compatible working environment for a worker.

 
The foundry is making significant investments into the purchase of personal assets and equipment for protection, and is insisting on a top quality equipment and equipment that is adjusted to a worker.
In order to recognize dangers that are present in the foundry, a permanent training of workers is carried out, as well as training of new workers which should recognize and alert about the dangers. Work safety education is considered an integral part of a business.
Namely, the more frequent use of new plants, technologies, tools, raw materials and operating energy leads to a wider spectrum of dangers. Recognizing the threatening dangers at work and measures for their elimination are our goal and they represent a basic precondition for the work safety.
 

Ecology
The foundry was issued a decision on a request from the Ministry for spatial planning, civil engineering and ecology on approval of the Plan of activities with measures and deadlines for gradual decrease of emissions, that is, decrease of pollution and for adjustments with the best available technique, all with a goal to gain ecology certificate from the authorized Ministry.
At the moment, we are carrying out all necessary activities and steps ordered in the decision in order to meet the deadlines, and according to that and the article 69. of the Law on the protection of human environment, company will submit a request for ecological certificate.
After the certificate is issued, the next goal will be gaining ISO 14001 certificate.
With these activities, the foundry will contribute to the current issues on protection of human environment.
