Supporting our values
We work very hard to ensure that we continue to provide the highest levels of customer service and supply chain management that we possibly can.
We firmly believe that the only way we can do this is by monitoring, training and encouraging our fantastic team of staff, and doing everything we can to ensure that everyone at worktown can work within the principles we've set.
We're extremely proud that the industry has recognised us and awarded us accordingly with a Quality Management System certification. Just recently we've been awarded with our new ISO 14001 certification, a plaudit for our environmental friendliness.
ISO certification in relation to how companies work with the environment, refers to:
- Environmental management systems
- Eco labelling
- Lifecycle assessment
- Environmental auditing
- Environmental performance evaluation
- Environmental aspects in product standards
- Waste management
At worktown, we see the protection of the environment as absolutely central to our approach. Our environmental management system adheres to the guidelines outlined in BSI ISO 14001, and ensures that we are at the cutting-edge of helping the environment. We've been green from the very beginning - the antithesis of a 'here today, gone tomorrow' publicity stunt.
Just some of the improvements we've made in the past two years include introducing LPG vehicles and hybrid pool cars to our fleet, recycling our waste and creating reusable energy. We're not resting on our laurels, though. We've got big plans ahead, and by 2010 we hope to be officially carbon negative.
All of which will help to achieve our mission:
To continue to build a sustainable and profitable organisation that offers unsurpassed levels of customer service and satisfies all business requirements.
