Environmental Policy

Environmental Policy

Organisation:

‘The Company’ is an independent provider of assessment, treatment, case management and rehabilitation services, operating from leased offices with a number of homeworkers providing specialist advice to clients by telephone.  We value quality, care and responsibility in everything we do, and this has led to us to consider our environmental impact: at our workplace, in our local community and in our wider dealings with suppliers and contractors.

Environmental Commitment

We are committed to ensuring compliance with all relevant environmental legislation
We are committed to preventing pollution in all our operations
We are committed to the principle of continual improvement

Major Impacts

In particular we will address our major impacts:

The waste we produce, the way we handle it and our associated use of resources
The behaviour of our staff and the role they play in our company’s environmental performance
The work carried out be our suppliers and contractors, and the influence we have over them

Environmental Management System

We are developing an Environmental Management System (EMS) , which will be implemented throughout our offices.  Through the EMS we will:

Review and control our environmental impacts and communicate our progress
Ensure that all employees understand the environmental impacts associated with their jobs through an ongoing process of training and raising awareness
Inform our major suppliers, contractors and sub-contractors of this policy and their role(s) in the EMS

Set appropriate objectives and targets for our most significant aspects and impacts
Develop relevant operational controls and procedures and update them accordingly
