  management system certification</b></p>
<p> PLIVA's subsidiary NEVA d.o.o. received the ISO 14001 environmental management 
  system certificate at a ceremony held on 15 November 2000 at PLIVA's headquarters 
  in Zagreb. In the presence of Mr. Roland Zuvanic, Deputy Minister of Environmental 
  Protection and Zoning, and Mr. Zeljko Covic, President of the Management Board 
  and CEO of PLIVA, Mr. Leonardo Omodeo-Zorini, representative of the Norwegian 
  certification company DNV presented the certificate to NEVA's director Ms. Sanja 
  Slunjski.</p>
<p> The environmental management system certification according to ISO 14001 standards 
  represents a great achievement for NEVA, and is a recognition of the commitment 
  of PLIVA, as NEVA's parent company, to environmental protection.</p>
<p> PLIVA has been carrying out its business operations for decades according 
  to the principles of good manufacturing practice, and complies with the most 
  demanding international control standards. NEVA had already received the ISO 
  9001 certification for quality management last year, and after obtaining the 
  ISO 14001 certification NEVA is the first company in Croatia with an integral 
  quality and environmental management system. </p>
<p>This is a step further toward establishing an integral environmental management 
  system in PLIVA, since PLIVA's experts had participated in the certification 
  process in NEVA as a pilot-project for PLIVA's implementation. </p>
<p>Environmental protection and social responsibility are closely connected with 
  top performance in PLIVA, because coupling these factors will enable sustainable 
  growth of the company and society as a whole. PLIVA, as the leading pharmaceutical 
  company in Central and Eastern Europe, is taking an active role in contributing 
  to this sustainable development.</p>
