Jobs Groundwork Wales Environmental Policy Statement Groundwork Wales is committed to becoming a leader in environmental assistance to the communities it serves. We are currently establishing the environmental management system ISO 14001 and so aim to achieve and develop the principals listed in this policy as the system evolves. Leadership means practicing sustainable development by integrating environmental planning in all business activities, by conserving natural resources and by controlling significant environmental risks associated with our operations.
Leadership also means working collaboratively with others and addressing environmental issues.
This responsibility will include the establishment of specific environmental responsibilities for each member of staff. Inform and train our employees to take account of environmental issues in their areas of work to assist them with their specific environmental responsibilities . Comply with and where possible exceed relevant environmental legislation in all aspects of the Trust's activities. Where feasible prevent pollution through setting objectives and targets that focus on waste, energy consumption, raw material use and transport. Set up procedures to assess the environmental impact of our operations and develop programmes which will enable the Trust to continually improve its environmental performance through using the best practical environmental options for established annual priorities.
