Enviromental Policy

We are committed to environmental sensitivity and sustainability in our business activities.

As evidence of this commitment, we will:

• Integrate environmental considerations into our business planning and operations to prevent pollution, minimise other negative impacts, and generate positive outcomes where possible.
• Develop and implement an EMS (environmental management system) based on the ISO 14001 international standard.
• Meet our legislative and regulatory requirements.
• Measure various aspects of our environmental performance, and seek to continuously improve our outcomes.
• Set objectives for environmental performance improvement and assign responsibility to members of senior management. These objectives will be included in those managers’ Key Performance Indicators.
• Provide employees with awareness and training to help them make environmentally sound decisions.
• Communicate information regarding our EMS and performance to customers, employees, suppliers, and the community via our web site and other appropriate means.
• Avoid, and where this is not possible, minimise adverse environmental impacts.

This policy and our EMS will be reviewed annually by senior management to ensure continued effectiveness and improvement.
