Emissions of air pollutants

Quantities are released from the combustion of fossil fuels (on-site fuel use for equipment operation, emergency generators and heating, as well as light vehicle fleet):

  • NOX = 210.1 tonnes (+50.4% compared to 2022, considering an update of the figures).
  • SOX = 42.5 tonnes (+43.1% compared to 2022, considering an update of the figures).

Emissions of ozone-depleting substances

This aspect is not material. However, in 2023, we recorded an emission of 0.68kg of CFC-11 eq., associated to the use of hydrochloro­fluorocarbons in air conditioning equipment in Colombia, which is part of the fixed assets of the acquired stores. These represent <0.1% of the total of this type of equipment used in the Group’s Companies.

Rate of accidents

In 2023, around five thousand work-related injuries were recorded throughout the Group, 34 of which were of high consequence, corresponding to an increase of 4.8% and 7.0% in the respective index, compared to the previous year. As a result, the rate of reportable accidents stood at 23.29 and the rate of accidents with serious consequences at 0.16.

The vast majority of the accidents are related to physical effort, inappropriate handling of equipment, risky behaviour, waste or wet floors and handling of cutting tools.

Most accidents:

  • in Portugal led to trauma and contusions.
  • in Poland resulted in fractures or contusions of limbs, cuts and musculoskeletal overload.
  • in Colombia led to contusions, strains and sprains, light superficial burns and musculoskeletal overload.
