| THE COMPANY is committed to continual improvement of our environmental performance and the efficient use of natural resources. |
| |
| Environmental responsibilities are integral to the way we do business. |
| |
Wherever we operate, we develop, implement and maintain management systems for health, safety, environment and the community that are consistent with internationally recognised standards and enable us to:
- Identify, assess and manage risks to employees, contractors, customers, the environment and communities;
- Strive to achieve leading industry practice;
- Meet or exceed applicable legal requirements;
- Set and achieve targets that include reducing waste and preventing pollution;
- Develop our people and provide resources to meet our targets;
- Support the fundamental human rights of employees, contractors and the communities in which we operate;
- Respect the traditional rights of indigenous peoples;
- Care for the environment and value cultural heritage; and
- Advise on the responsible use of our products.
|
| |
Wherever possible, we seek to:
- Reduce the generation of waste materials at their sources;
- Reuse waste materials onsite;
- Recycle waste materials offsite; and
- Minimise the storage or disposal of these materials either on or offsite, pending the further development of processes to increase their practical reuse.
|
| |
| The commitment towards this will be on going. We will continually review our operations and make ourselves accountable for our performance - not only to our stakeholders, but also to our customers and the community at large. |
