Environment

ISO 14001 is the internationally recognised standard for Environmental Management Systems (EMS). This provides a framework for managing environmental responsibilities so they become more efficient and more integrated into overall business operations.

Green Contract Services ensures all employees, including contractors are responsible for working in a manner that protects the environment. We educate our workforce by providing environmental awareness training to reduce impact on the environment.

In particular we shall:-

• Fully integrate environmental management into operating procedures to ensure long term and short term environmental issues are considered. We are committed to continual improvement in all areas of potential environmental impact.
• Audit operations on a regular basis to identify strengths and areas for improvement, and to highlight actions required to prevent potential deficiencies.
• Ensure compliance with all applicable legislation and where no regulation exists we shall set our own standards, in line with industry best practice.

We intend to reduce our environmental impact through improvements in:-

• Containment and storage of oils, fuels and chemicals
• Minimising the generation of solid wastes
• Recycling initiatives including office paper and metal waste
