Environmental Policy

Introduction and Aim

DAG Electrical is a family run electrical contracting company, operating in premises in North Lanarkshire. We are committed to being a highly successful Electrical Contracting Company. We recognise that our operations result in the generation of waste. It is our aim to reduce the environmental impacts of our business and to operate in an environmentally responsible manner. This policy describes how we will achieve our aim.

Responsibility

This environmental policy applies to all of our operations including management, office services, construction site processes, delivery and procurement. David Grieve, Contracts Manager is responsible for ensuring that the policy is implemented. However, all employees have a responsibility in their area to ensure that the aims and objectives of the policy are met.

To achieve our aims, we have set ourselves the following targets:

  • Inform all customers and suppliers about our environmental policy by October 2006 and, thereafter, all new customers and suppliers.
  • Define good housekeeping for materials, ensure all employees receive training in good housekeeping by September 2006 and incorporate this training into the induction programme for new employees.
