environmental policy
“The Management of Westralian Engineering regards protection of the environment to be an
important aspect of our operations and necessary element of good corporate citizenship.”
Our Environment Management System will operate together with our Quality Assurance and Occupational
Health and Safety Systems to control and minimize the environmental impact of all organisational activities.
This will be achieved by extending our existing control over company processes to include consideration of
environmental impact.
• To comply with and exceed the level of environmental performance required by regulation or client specification.
• To establish and maintain environmental responsible waste management and waste disposal practices.
• To eliminate harm to flora and fauna, identify sensitive areas or heritage considerations and instigate appropriate
protective measures and on completion restore the site to original condition.
• To store all materials in a manner that reduces their potential release to the atmosphere, soil or water.
• To establish procedures for the safe containment of hazardous materials and for appropriate action in the event of
spillages.
• To reduce the potential for environmental harm in emergency situations by responding effectively to emergencies using
trained personnel and established emergency plans.
• To eliminate the use of ozone depleting substances such as CFC’s or Halon.
• To ensure that purchasing procedures give appropriate consideration to potentially deleterious effects of purchases.
• To ensure an ongoing review of work practices and equipment to minimize energy use and reduce waste.
• To ensure that subcontractors and suppliers conform to relevant requirements of our Environmental Policy.
• To promote the adoption of sound environmental management.
