Sustainability

As an organisation Seetec has a strong commitment to Corporate Social Responsibility. We have a strict code of business ethics that permeates the organisation at every level and governs the way we conduct business and interact with partners and customers.

 

We have a strong commitment to sustainable development to achieve social, economic and environmental goals, and a key part of our approach to sustainable development is our environmental policy:

 

We continually seek to ensure that our activities are carried out with minimal impact on the environment and to enhance the environment wherever possible.

 

Seetec encourages all stakeholders including community, suppliers, customers, and employees to be accountable for the impact of their actions upon the environment and to strive for continuous improvement.

 

Seetec encourages all stakeholders including participants to apply the 3 R’s: Reduce the amount of resources that are used, Reuse anything that can be and Recycle materials using the facilities provided. Examples include:

 

  • Much of the company’s internal communication is conducted on-line to reduce the use of paper. Documents are shared via an on-line document storage facility or USB keys and all waste paper is shredded for recycling.
  • We collect plastic drinking cups, toner cartridges, mobile phones, cans and cardboard for recycling.
  • We promote energy management to employees and learners by installing automatic taps and lights where possible, not leaving computers on standby overnight and putting up signs to ensure valuable energy resources are saved.
  • We encourage the use of public transport for employee travel and encourage car-share schemes, acknowledging the finite natural resources of the petroleum industry.
  • Those working on PCs and receiving IT training are told about the problems of disposing of PCs and how Seetec recycles them to community groups, local schools and even to some of the participants.

 

The quality and innovation within these initiatives has been acknowledged when Seetec was awarded the Southend District Business Award for Environmental Awareness sponsored by Southend-on-Sea Borough Council.

 

Seetec is currently implementing an Environmental Management System (ISO 14001)
