Good governance Transparent operations and the commitment of all business partners to the model of continuous improvement are the foundation of Terrafame’s sustainability. The company’s operating principles in terms of quality, safety, and the environment are specified in its separate, regularly updated quality, personnel, and sustainable development policies. Our goal is that by 2024, Terrafame will prove the sustainability of its business operations through systems to which our customers are also committed. Corporate responsibility will also be demonstrated through international systems based on the ISO 26001 standard. GOAL Terrafame’s operations are transparent.
TARGET 2024 Terrafame proves the sustainability of its business operations through systems based on the ISO 26001 standard and to which its customers are also committed. Level A has been achieved in all aspects covered by the Finnish TSM Standard.
UPDATE 5/2022 Terrafame is committed to the Finnish TSM Standard. In late 2021, the company conducted a third-party verification of its TSM self-assessment. The verified results were in line with the company’s self-assessment. The 2022 self-assessment was carried out in May. The company was able to show improvement in the health and safety assessment tool and its grade rose to level A. After this the company has 3/8 assessment tools that do not yet meet the requirements for level A. During 2022, opportunities to participate in the chemical industry’s Responsible Care sustainability system and the mining industry’s international IRMA (Initiative for Responsible Mining Assurance) sustainability system will be explored, and preparations will be made to report in line with the new Communication on Progress (CoP) platform of the UN Global Compact initiative in 2023.
We ensure the compliance of our operations.

Terrafame has systematic processes in place to identify business partners and the ethical risks associated with them, even before establishing a partnership.
SUSTAINABILITY REVIEW 2022
A systematic compliance process for selecting, identifying, and monitoring business partners will be further developed during 2022. In April 2021, the company introduced a channel through which people working within the industrial site can report any misconduct anonymously (whistleblowing).
