In recent years, the emphasis on social responsibility and the environment has increased significantly, motivating organisations across all sectors to review their practices and comply with new regulations. In this context, As Metal took part in the event organised by the Bucharest Chamber of Commerce and Industry regarding the new regulations in accordance with OMF no. 85/2024 and Directive (EU) 2022/2464, known as the CSRD Directive – Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive.
The special guests with whom we were able to discuss all the topics of interest, Oana Georgiana STĂNILĂ, President of the Authority for the Public Oversight of the Statutory Audit Activity (ASPAAS), Adrian POPESCU, President of the Chamber of Financial Auditors of Romania (CAFR), Ciprian MIHĂILESCU, Adviser to the President of CAFR on external affairs, Member of the EFAA Board for SMEs – the European Federation of Accountants and Auditors for SMEs, and Elena-Ecaterina CHIVU, President of the Body of Expert and Licensed Accountants of Romania (CECCAR), offered a broad perspective on how sustainability principles can be integrated into organisational strategies and reflected in our company’s reporting.
By its very nature, our aluminium recycling activity is intrinsically linked to achieving sustainable development objectives. This is because aluminium recycling has a significant impact on reducing carbon emissions and conserving natural resources. Therefore, through our commitment to aluminium recycling, we contribute directly to promoting sustainable practices and achieving sustainable development objectives.
As Metal is constantly engaged in the community through education and transparent communication, and participation in the event dedicated to reporting enabled a better understanding of this complex concept. The principle of sustainability has become a central point within the strategies of organisations in all fields.
The event gave participants the opportunity to discover the main changes and developments brought by this directive and the way in which they influence the reporting practices of organisations. Participation in the event provided an excellent platform for establishing connections and collaborative relationships with professionals from various sectors interested in sustainability and reporting. The exchange of ideas, experience and best practices can stimulate innovation in the field of reporting, and by connecting with other professionals, we were able to access additional information resources.
In the context of the continuous evolution of regulations regarding non-financial and sustainability reporting, participation in events on this topic is essential in order to stay up to date with legislative changes and improve reporting practices. As Metal is strengthening its position in the field and remains up to date with the latest trends and innovations, being constantly concerned with the changes that stimulate progress and transparency.
Interaction with field experts, continuous learning and establishing professional connections are key components in developing the skills and competencies needed to manage non-financial reporting efficiently and to contribute to building a more sustainable future.
As Metal promotes a culture of continuous learning within the organisation and explores partnerships and collaborations with other organisations, academic institutions or industry experts in order to expand its knowledge and share best practices.
