The objectives
Seetec is working towards as part of its environmental management
system are as follows:
Use of
Materials:
- Endeavour to minimise use of potentially toxic materials.
- Aim to source materials from sustainable origins.
- Maximise use of recycled and recyclable materials
- Maximise consideration of the environment in the roll out of
new recycling projects.
Waste
Management:
- Where packaging is used minimise pack size
and material waste.
- Expand practice of materials segregation to allow increased
recovery and recycling of waste materials.
- Promote appropriate waste management practices to
stakeholders.
- Continuous research to gain a greater understanding of
management mechanisms for the benefit of the company and the
community.
Energy / Fuel
Consumption:
- Continuously identify ways of minimising
energy consumption e.g. car share plan to control unnecessary
mileage.
- Continually adopt fuel-efficient systems for any fleet
transport and company vehicles.
- Promote energy management to employees.
Sustainable Development
Targets
Sustainable development targets may be
management or performance related. Management targets relate to the
development of the management system, either to enhance the
existing mechanism or to enlarge it to cover new areas. Performance
targets are linked to inputs and outputs, aiming to improve these
figures by a set percentage.
Management
targets:
- To continually improve Seetec’s environmental
performance and reduction of environmental impact.
- To improve and develop further mechanisms for internal and
external communication relating to corporate environmental
issues.
- To report regularly on corporate environmental management
issues.
- To research and gather more detailed data relating to the
group's key impacts.
Performance targets:
- Aim to increase the recycling of office waste
collected by 25% (reducing waste to landfill).
- To introduce a range of recycling projects across the
group.
