To support us in our commitment, we embed our corporate environmental policy in business processes to ensure continued focus and systematic performance improvement. The policy is the umbrella for all Group company environmental policies. Our network of environmental coordinators works to ensure that these are aligned and that the underlying principles are consistently applied.
We aim to understand our current performance through consistent measurement and reporting techniques, as well as the implementation of management systems to monitor progress toward our goals. To work effectively, these systems are integrated into overall business processes and supported by appropriate training.
