AENOR has awarded Hospitales Universitarios San Roque the Criminal Compliance certificate according to the UNE 19601:2017 standard, which verifies that the company has an effective criminal compliance management system.
“The healthcare group thus becomes the first hospital in the Canary Islands, both public and private, to achieve this.”
The UNE 19601 standard is the national standard of best practices for crime prevention, risk reduction and the promotion of an ethical and law-abiding business culture. This certification is based on Criminal Compliance standards and involves the implementation of a Criminal Compliance Management System. Its adoption allows for minimising legal risks, optimising corporate management and strengthening reputation in the Private Health sector.
The certificate obtained is added to the rest of the certificates that have been achieved and renewed by the HUSR hospital group, such as ISO 911 for Quality, ISO 14001 for the Environment, ENS- National Safety Scheme, among others. In this way, they continue their commitment to the best compliance practices, demonstrating some of their values, such as ethical principles, transparency and good corporate governance.
