In 2020, SIR receives the new ISO 45001:2018 certification which is the world’s first International Standard for occupational health and safety (OH&S).

According to the International Labour Organisation, more than 7,600 people die every day due to workplace accidents or work-related illnesses, while accidents and illnesses have significant consequences for both employers and the economic system in general (source). ISO 45001 certification was developed in 2018 with the aim of providing a framework to increase safety, reduce workplace risks and enhance health and well-being at work, enabling an organization to proactively improve its OH&S performance.

The prestigious certification comes at the completion of a path developed by SIR in the two years since its acquisition by the Widap Group, aimed at strengthening the skills and business processes and carried out by its CEO Alessandro Decio, with the aim of projecting SIR in a new phase of its growth history. This recognition is a testament to the success and potential of the approach adopted, which integrates responsible investment factors related to environmental, social and governance issues into day-to-day operations.

We enjoyed a great day skiing in Grindelwald with beautiful weather and optimal snow conditions.
For the more adventurous among us, there was even a flight with the First Flyer and First Glider at the end.

To celebrate the 40th anniversary of Widap AG, Widap, together with the branch office in Schaffhausen and Widap electronic components in Germany, undertook a two-day company outing to Milano.
Last month the excursion started by coach from Schmitten. After a stopover in Lucerne, where the staff from Schaffhausen boarded, the journey continued south. At about 14 o'clock we reached the headquarters of the S.I.R. Società Italiana Resistor, which was acquired in 2018 and where we were already expected. During a delicious aperitif, all employees had the opportunity to get to know the employees of the S.I.R. better. Afterwards the tour of the S.I.R. production took place, where Alessandro Decio, the managing director of the S.I.R., was able to show us at his presentation the numerous advances and optimizations that he and his employees have implemented since the takeover by Widap. This was followed by a speech by Paolo Lo Nigro, owner and managing director of Widap, who once again mentioned the most important milestones of the last 40 years and looked forward to a promising future. The conclusion of the company tour was rounded off with an exciting guest lecture by Peter Colat, record holder in Apnoea diving.
Later we were brought by car to our hotels in the centre of Milan. After everyone could relax and freshen up in the hotel, all 75 guests met in the restaurant "I Chiostri di San Barnaba". The restaurant, which is housed in a monastery built in 1466, offered an impressive and wonderful atmosphere and spoiled us, last but not least, with a typical northern Italian menu. After dinner some explored the nightlife of Milano, while the others went back to the hotels.
The next day we had the opportunity to explore the sights and history of Milano on a guided tour of the city and stroll through the famous shopping streets, before we soon went back to Switzerland and Germany and all look back on a successful company outing.

Widap would like to thank its employees, customers and suppliers for their many years of loyalty and looks forward to the coming years.

We look forward to fulfilling your requirements even more extensively in the future.
