IAN ALLAN TRAVEL
Ian Allan Travel is a professional and environmentally conscious
organisation, which acknowledges the impact that our operations
may potentially have on the environment. The clear objective
of the company is to minimise any impact on the environment
by:
• Preventing pollution, reducing waste and ensuring, wherever
practicable, that measures are implemented to protect and
preserve natural habitats, flora and fauna
• Considering the effects that our operations may have on
the local community
• Taking action to eliminate or reduce, as far as practicable,
any potentially adverse environmental impacts
• Promoting environmental awareness amongst our suppliers,
contractors and partners by implementation of operational
procedures
• Seeking to work in partnership with the community by behaving
in a considerate and socially responsible manner
• Ensuring effective and expedient incident control, investigation
and reporting.
Managerial and supervisory staff have responsibilities for
the implementation of the policy and must ensure that environmental
issues are given adequate consideration in the planning and
day-to-day supervision of all work.
Ian Allan Travel will fully comply with the duties placed
upon it within the requirements of legislation, whilst at
all times complying with, as a matter of best practice, the
requirements and duties set out within Approved Guidance as
issued by the Environment Agency and other organisations.
As part of the company’s commitment to maintaining the highest
levels of environmental management, the company has achieved
ISO14001 accreditation and is continuing to make further improvements
in adopting environmental management systems compliant with
this standard.
All employees and sub-contractors are expected to co-operate
and assist in the implementation of this policy, whilst ensuring
that their own works, so far as is reasonably practicable,
are carried out without risk to themselves, others or the
environment. This includes co-operating with management on
any environment related matter.
Ian Allan Travel will take all practical steps to ensure that
potential hazards and risks to the environment are identified
and that suitable and effective preventive and control measures
are implemented. All employees will be provided with the necessary
resources, equipment, information, instruction and training
to fulfill the requirements of this policy.
The directors of Ian Allan Travel have overall responsibility
for all environmental matters. The operation of this policy
and the associated procedures will be monitored and reviewed
on a regular basis to ensure that they remain current and
applicable to the company’s activities.
