Environmental Management System

We have implemented an integrated management system that meets the relevant quality, environmental and safety standards. Our Company`s environmental activity is in compliance with the requirements of the international environmental management standard ISO 14001 and EU Eco Management and Audit Scheme (EMAS) Regulation.

The environmental management system forms a part of the Company`s management system, as we strive to make the links between the Company and the environment part of our strategy and to take them into account in our everyday operation.

The basis for the environmental management system is the identification of significant environmental aspects and impacts, which form the basis for determining the Company`s environmental objectives and tasks to improve the performance. Significant environmental aspects are such activities which, in contact with the surrounding environment, most influence the nature, quality of services, co-operation between stakeholders, public health, quality of life of the residents, and our business performance.

Management of the environmental system has been established in accordance with the Company´s structure. The main responsibility for ensuring and improving the functioning of the environmental management system lies with the senior management and the heads of structural units. Unit managers involve their employees in setting and fulfilling environmental objectives and tasks. We measure, monitor and assess the indicators of our environmental activities at least once a quarter, on the basis of which we annually compile an environmental report available for the public.
