And our commitment to helping others enjoy peace of mind is matched by the desire to be a truly environmentally responsible organisation. It’s one thing to say we’re committed to thinking and acting sustainably. It’s quite another thing to set tangible targets to be measured against. But that’s what we’ve done. Working responsibly has become second nature to us as we strive to adopt best practice and reduce our environmental impact across the following areas: Not only are we compliant to the CRC Energy Efficiency Scheme and the WEEE Directive, but we were the first NSI (National Security Inspectorate) NACOSS Gold Company in the UK to be certified by the NSI with the internationally recognised ISO 14001 Environmental Management System standard.

Our global commitment ADT’s parent company, Johnson Controls, realised that the way businesses operated 100 years ago was totally different to how they operate today. And in order to be around in the future they had to find ways of saving natural resources and reducing their overall environmental footprint. To achieve this they focused on a vision of Zero Harm, which meant finding ways to lower their total environmental impact by reducing GHG emissions, water use and waste generation. In 2010, we also launched an environmental and sustainability employee programme, Vital World. This vision aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, water consumption and waste generation by 25% by 2015. 147 years of protecting what matters About ADT Johnson Controls Blog Careers CSR Agent Enquiry Sitemap Cookie Compliance Legal Privacy Modern Slavery Act Gender Pay Gap Report Copyright 2021 ADT Fire & Security PLC.
