HSE Environmental Policy

ALFEN agreed that the protection of the environment is very important for the future of humanity.

All ALFEN systems are established with this spirit of understanding and this teaching is given to the employees. ALFEN will ensure that activities, products and services that may interact with the environment are identified and that they are controlled in cases where they may have significant negative effects on the environment and all kinds of pollution are prevented. This includes, but is not limited to, all waste, noise, dust and other hazardous materials, and efficient use of energy and resources.

ALFEN recognises that it has a legal and moral responsibility to manage its activities in such a way so as to reduce the detrimental impact on the environment. Our policies and procedures will be implemented to ensure compliance with the requirements of ISO 14001:2015 Environmental Management System and safety performance.

To this end, ALFEN has adopted a philosophy of ‘beyond minimum compliance’ at all levels of its operations to ensure that the impact of pollution and environmental disruption is reduced as much as possible.

This will involve:

Compliance with all environmental legal requirements, regulations and guidance.
Integration of environmental factors into business decisions.
Planning work systems and practices so as to give due consideration as to their potential environmental impact.
So far as it is possible to prevent the illegal deposit, disposal or treatment of controlled waste by any person where that waste has been, or will be under the control of the company.
Where possible seek to influence the design and specification of construction projects so as to ensure that environmental impact is minimised as far as it reasonably practical.
Ensuring considered use of resources of all kinds, including the promotion of recycled and recyclable materials wherever possible.
Establishing company procedures to ensure that waste is managed in line with legislation and that all parties involved in the waste production, transportation, transfer and disposal process comply with their Duty of Care regarding waste control.
Ensure that all subcontractors / suppliers working on our behalf hold appropriate environmental permits / licences.
Provide information to individuals regarding the monitoring of the Company Environmental Procedures.
Provide copies of this Environmental Policy Statement to all employees
Ensure all employees have an understanding and are trained in their responsibilities in relation to the environmental policy and procedures.
