Environmental Policy
Metro Project Services embraces the principle of sustainable development — development which meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. We believe this principle is fundamental to Metro Project Services’ continued success and growth.
In order to minimise our impact on the environment, Metro Project Services has developed and implemented an Environmental Management System that complies with the ISO 14001:2015 Environmental Management Standard.
We are committed to pursuing industry-specific best practice in environmental performance, as we acknowledge that our shareholders, workers and the community at large expect responsible environmental practice by our business.
Specifically, Metro Project Services is committed to
- ✓Conducting our operations to minimise environmental risk and, wherever practicable, eliminate adverse environmental impacts
- ✓Ongoing sustainable management of our environmental impacts within our facilities and operations, acting to reduce our rates of emissions, energy and waste
- ✓Fulfilling our compliance obligations in regard to relevant environmental legislation, regulations, standards and codes of practice as the absolute minimum requirement
- ✓Engaging with our suppliers, customers and joint venture partners to develop improved environmental sustainability practices
- ✓Sharing best practices for environmental management with our clients and subcontractors
- ✓Actively considering the use of alternative energy sources and low-emissions technology as they become economically viable
- ✓Continual improvement of the environmental management system to enhance environmental performance
Through communication and training, our employees and contractors will be encouraged and assisted to enhance Metro Project Services’ environmental awareness and performance.
All Metro Project Services personnel are required to work towards the fulfilment of the Environmental Management System, and management will regularly review this policy, and the other elements of the system, in order to maintain its suitability and effectiveness.
