COMMUNITY RELATIONSHIP
BO PAPER ® works by supporting various socio-environmental actions, fulfilling its social role and contributing to transforming initiatives for society in general.
Among them we highlight:
Business Coalition to End Violence Against Women (Avon Partnership)
THE BO PAPER® has been a signatory company since 2019 and is active in the movement, showing both the internal public and the surrounding communities its commitment and engagement, in line with the objectives:
• Ensuring a safe work environment so that female employees who are victims of violence have access to the support and support they need to be understood and treated fairly when they seek help or report abuse on or off company premises.
• Promote internal communication and awareness campaigns on combating violence against women and girls so that company professionals and other stakeholders have the knowledge and information to recognize and know what to do in the face of violence.
BO PAPER® periodically promotes conversation forums, provides digital and printed material, in addition to encouraging the use of active listening through communication channels. In the communities, it gives broad visibility to the campaign with billboards and delivery of an educational booklet on the subject.
During this period, the campaign gave voice to women and some cases that were dealt with, which encourages us in the search for a just and dignified society for all.
Ray of Light Project - Arapoti - PR
The Raio de Luz Project develops the potential of women through sewing workshops using reused material and generating financial income in the region, benefiting residents of poor areas, professionalizing them and thus giving them the possibility to generate their own income. The initiative came from a group of women from Arapoti who offered sewing courses to the needy local community, with intensive classes and the right to a certificate. To continue this work, a group of facilitators was formed to develop a sewing project and since then they have been working with free workshops.
Today the Project is consolidated and offers work and income to women who dedicate themselves to the activity, who work with donated material to reduce costs.
In this context, BO PAPER® makes its contribution to the Project, donating the uniforms that employees use and are changed every 6 months (knit t-shirt and jeans), generating good quality material that is destined for the Project for making of handicrafts, which are sold directly at fairs and events.
In this way, we reach a group of trained women with their own income, in addition to reducing the company's waste and consequently in the environment.
