What AFJ does
AFJ Health & Safety, S.L.U. (brand: AFJ Global) is a Spanish privately-held professional services firm founded in 2005 and headquartered in Alcorcón (Madrid), providing integrated HSE (Health, Safety, and Environment), engineering, training, and document-management services to enterprise clients in construction, energy, industrial, and aviation sectors. The company operates five service lines: Prevención (occupational risk prevention services — safety coordination, prevention technicians, preventive resources, accredited as External Prevention Service or SPA nationwide); Ingeniería (engineering consulting and project management with site managers, construction supervisors, quality and environmental supervisors); Gestion@ / AFJ Gestion@ (proprietary cloud-based SaaS platform for Coordination of Business Activities, document validation, and access control with mobile QR/NFC check-in via the eMoviliza app); Formación / AFJ Learning (certified training programs including courses approved by FLC and FM, plus first-aid training carrying the AELEC stamp); and Talent Solutions (headhunting with competency analysis, psychometric evaluation, and selection guarantees). Additional sub-brands include AFJ Aviation (crew outsourcing and pilot recruitment in Spain) and AFJ Servicios Transitorios (temporary staffing in Chile).
The company generates revenue through multi-year professional service contracts and project-based engagements awarded via direct enterprise sales through a centralized commercial department, with pricing quoted per project or retainer rather than published. Distribution is direct-to-enterprise across five country markets — Spain (HQ), Portugal, Chile (regional LatAm HQ), Mexico, and Peru — supported by wholly-owned subsidiaries, country-specific commercial contacts, and dedicated HR channels. An integrated technology stack (AFJ Gestion@ + AFJ Learning + eMoviliza + Canal Ético via Ithomios) wraps the people-intensive service delivery with cloud-based documentation, access validation, and learning management, while back-office infrastructure is being upgraded through a 2025 Vodafone Business Cybersecurity Master Plan.
Customers include Schneider Electric (framework provider since 2016, 3,000+ works as Preventive Resource), Eiffage (framework provider since 2017, 400+ works), Iberdrola, Ferrovial, Siemens, Enel, Veolia, Acciona, Airbus, Vestas, Gonvarri, Engie, and EDP Renováveis. The company carries integrated ISO 9001 / ISO 14001 / ISO 45001 certifications, RePro Registry registration under Spain's Law 31/2007, and Labor Foundation of Construction approval to issue PRL training for the Professional Construction Card. Co-CEOs Lydia Seller (recognized in Las Top 100 Mujeres Líderes 2026) and David Díaz lead the company, which has 101-250 employees.
