Sustainable Use of Resources
Sustainable Procurement
Resource Management
Managers are encouraged to reduce the amounts of material held and used, and to investigate alternatives that comply with the environmental policy for example to reduce packaging materials. We maintain our equipment at optimum working levels to reduce pollution and prolong life.
Legal Compliance
Compliance and Standards
AIS will fully comply with the duties placed upon it within the requirements of legislation, whilst at all times complying with, as a matter of best practice, the requirements and duties set out within Approved Guidance as issued by the Environment Agency and other organisations. As part of the company’s commitment to maintaining the highest levels of environmental management, it is the intention that the company will work towards environmental management systems compliant with ISO14001.
AIS will take all practical steps to ensure that potential hazards and risks to the environment are identified and that suitable and effective preventive and control measures are implemented. All employees will be provided with the necessary resources, equipment, information, instruction and training to fulfil the requirements of this policy.
Waste Handling and Recycling
We establish waste handling and disposal agreements with sub-contractors who can demonstrate not only compliance with current legislation but also an understanding of the philosophy of the reduction of waste by reuse and recycling. We insist on carriage and disposal methods that maintain the aims of our environmental policy.
We separate waste wherever possible to permit reuse and recycling options both in our office and contract situation. We seek to conserve energy and, where possible, we implement energy saving systems.
