We will allocate suitable and sufficient resources which enable the company to achieve this.
Respect for People and Communities – Provide environmental training to our own people and our supply chain on environmental issues and encourage individuals to make environmental commitments on our sites and in our offices. In adhering to this policy, in particular, we will:

All our employees are expected to cooperate and assist in the implementation of this policy by ensuring that environmental issues and risks are given adequate consideration. The successful implementation of this policy requires the cooperation, commitment and involvement of everyone in the business.
The Executive Committee has overall responsibility for ensuring this policy is complied with and will review it at least once per year, and at such other times as may be required, to ensure it remains relevant and appropriate to the aims of the objectives of our business.
