FST and ISO 14001
FST recognises that, while our business does not generate massive amounts of pollution, the nature of the services we provide do result in an overall impact on the environment, which we can reduce, thereby improving the quality of the environment. FST has been certified to ISO 14001 since 2005 (jointly with ISO 9001 Quality Management System) and since 2006 runs as a separate environmental entity. It demonstrates to staff, customers and suppliers that FST manages its business in an environmentally responsible manner. Our 4 main objectives are:
- Energy Efficiency
- Waste Minimisation and Management
- Communication to Customers
- Environmental Training
Benefits of ISO 14001
- Cost savings and greater efficiency, more reliable equipment
- More comfortable work environment
- Contracts and customers – increasingly ISO 14001 is a prerequisite when tendering for contracts
- Compliance with legislation
