Description : Nature is our domain, respecting it is our responsibility
Ski area actions for environmental protection!
The ski lift companies of Les Arcs and Peisey-Vallandry have obtained ISO 14001 “Environmental Management” certification - “Q.S.E.” Quality - Safety - Environment.
Priorities have been set in favor of protecting the natural environment and preventing pollution; they will progressively be translated through on-site actions and accomplishments.
Since they are highly aware of what is at stake, mountain professionals have already undertaken concrete action:
- Collection and recycling of ski cards,
- Reforestation and replanting of grass when installing ski runs,
- Reduction in the number of pylons when equipment is replaced,
- Utilization of organic oils for snow plow maintenance,
- Visual signalization of cables for bird protection (black grouse), in collaboration with the Vanoise National Park and FRAPNA,
- Distribution of pocket ash trays,
- Implementation of numerous trash bins with daily collection,
- Cleaning of the area under the chair lifts each spring.
Quality is our commitment
Being attentive to your needs, proposing adapted offers and services and improving your satisfaction are all goals based on: An excellent customer relationship:
- Facilitated access to ski lifts (hands-free terminal, help for boarding children, snow removal, etc.).
- Creation of an information hot line and two “Altitude Lounge” information areas.
- Launch of new repeat-customer programs and ski pass recharging via Internet.
And thorough expertise:
- Broadcast of weather bulletins and ski run openings through the resort’s private TV channel.
Sharing values by involving customers in our environmental approach.
Security is our priority
Analyze work accidents and make staff aware of and responsable for risks tied to work at heights, materials handling (movements and posture), electricity, hoisting and fires, by further investment in:
- Personnel training
- Posting of instructions.
- Safety checks.
- Implementation of special equipment and purchase of specific materiel!
The environment is our lifestyle
Be aware of and prevent environmental risks tied to our activity and act together to limit their impact, with the implementation of:
- Slabs and separators for hydrocarbons at service stations.
- Selective sorting of trash in offices and workshops and at the bottom and top of ski lifts.
- A welcome chart to provide awareness of our approach for outside participants and to guide their interventions.
- Closets and containers for storing chemical products and training of personnel on pollution risks incurred.
- Document printing on recycled paper.
