Tasks of a Water Company
Water does not have a price but water services come at a cost
The main tasks of a water service are to transform water taken from its natural environment into a food product, supplying water to the public 24/7, and finally treating it before releasing it back into the natural environment. The water that is provided by this service is a vital resource for private individuals, companies and public authorities.
A long-term partner
Veolia Water works in real partnership with its clients by providing a remarkably wide range of services, as, from the very start, it has faced a diverse number of expectations from local authorities and a vast array of local situations.
Veolia Water has always been able to facilitate and keep up with the increase in hygiene and environmental quality criteria. It has also been able to meet the ever increasing expectations of both consumers and various stakeholders from civil society with regard to services and information. A utility company whose quality of service depends on the work of its 78,000 employees, Veolia Water has made training and transfer of expertise a priority and one of its main competitive advantages.
A local presence
Wherever its employees are working, Veolia Water is a local company.
However, it benefits from the support of an international skills network capable of meeting the needs arising from the cultural, economic, or life styles issues of the local communities that it serves. The same is true for:
- the technical solutions that are implemented;
- the investments that are made;
- the financial support;
- payment methods;
- and local services;
