Environmental Policy
ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY
AM Support Services Ltd recognises that the protection and conservation of the environment is an important aspect of the Company's overall performance and also a major responsibility of the Company management.
The Managing Director has overall responsibility for ensuring that this policy is understood, implemented and maintained at all levels in the Company.
The Company is committed to environmental protection, improved environmental performance and the prevention of pollution. This will be achieved by the setting of objectives and targets and ensuring these are regularly monitored. These objectives cannot be met effectively without the full co-operation of our staff, our clients and all our business associates.
These objectives include but are not limited to:-
- Comply with all environmental legislation affecting our business and aim to exceed any industry environmental benchmarks as may be demanded by customers or produced by Regulatory Bodies.
- Organising our operations to minimise pollution and the impacts to the environment caused by our operations and activities
- The efficient use of materials and resources with particular regard to the long term sustainability of consumable items.
- Reduce all un-recyclable waste to a minimum so as reduce the volume sent to landfill
- Bulk purchase raw materials, where this is not possible, reusable materials will be used and returned to the supplier for refilling.
- Benchmark, monitor and continually review all packaging handled on a annual basis
- Effectively monitor, control and reduce the impact from the use of energy
- Monitor and reduce the impact of carbon emissions from transport and vehicles
- Ensure that our Environmental Management System complies to BS EN ISO 14001: 2004
Through regular training employees at all levels are made aware of the potential environmental effects of their activities, new or amended legislation that affects them and the environmental benefits of improved performance.
The Company will require all sub-contractors, suppliers and associated companies to accept the same operational standards as it imposes on itself.
This policy will be reviewed annually by the senior management of the Company, and where deemed necessary will be amended and re-issued.
This policy statement is displayed on the Company's premises. It is publicly available through our website, reception areas or as may be reasonably requested by any interested party.
