ISO 14001
At DMC we recognize that all businesses have an effect on the environment. In order to control and minimise these environmental effects an environmental management system is required.
DMC is proud to have been awarded the prestigious ISO 14001 standard. Our ISO certificate number is PK200-EC. You can download the official, high-rez certificate here. The certification is valid through September. 2012.
Receiving ISO 14001:2004 registration is a significant and positive milestone for DMC. The DMC ISO ISO 14001:2004 environmental management system covers all aspects of DMC's environmental issues.
ISO 14001 is an international environmental standard designed to aid companies in the identification and assessment of their significant environmental impacts and legal obligations through the implementation of a programme of continuous environmental improvement via a series of objectives, targets and written procedures.
How is this achieved?
- The organisational and employee responsibilities are defined in order to implement the environmental management system and all personnel whose work can affect the environment are trained in environmental issues.
- A management manual details how the system works supported by individual procedures for activities affecting the environment.
- Detailed records are kept and internal audits are carried out to assess the effectiveness of the system.
- The whole system is reviewed periodically and is assessed externally.
- An environmental policy is published and provides the focal point of the firm’s environmental programmes and activities.
- Detailed objectives and targets for continual environmental improvement are set and a programme to achieve those objectives is implemented.
- Registers of the environmental effects of the firm’s activities and the relevant environmental legislation are maintained.
This is just part of DMC’s commitment to the environment.
