Animal Welfare

Animal Welfare – Our Purpose

Animal Welfare is a component of the Operations Directorate, dedicated to enhancing our processes continuously—from field practices to slaughterhouse procedures—ensuring high process standards and full consistency with our organizational values.
Our objective is to encourage and support best practices among employees, suppliers, partners, and all individuals interacting with live animals in our operations.

Animal Welfare

We operate in accordance with established standards, guidelines, and legal requirements to foster ongoing improvements.

An Animal Care Program and Policy are in place, which, among other key elements, support employee development through training and skill-building, as well as the identification and assessment of opportunities for creating short-, medium-, and long-term action plans.

According to Pif Paf Alimentos, animal welfare entails ongoing advancements in animal agriculture that are consistent with the five freedoms:

  • Free from discomfort
  • Free from hunger and thirst
  • Free from fear and stress
  • Free from pain, injuries and illness
  • Free to express natural behavior
