Environmental Policy
Mission statement
At Just R we recognise that the environment is important to our business, our staff and our clients. We recognise our responsibility to manage our environmental impacts carefully. We are committed to reducing our negative environmental impacts, promoting environmental responsibility and continually improving our environmental performance as an integral part of our business strategy and operating methods, with regular review points. We will encourage guests, suppliers and other contacts to do the same.
Policy aims
We endeavour to:
- Incorporate environmental considerations into our business decisions.
- Continually improve and monitor our own environmental performance.
- Promote environmental awareness among our guests and suppliers.
Policy priorities
1. Energy
- We will seek ways of reducing the amount of energy used in our building.
- Source our energy from the most sustainable supplier, subject to cost constraints.
2. Transportation
- We will reduce the need to travel, including through promoting the use of travel alternatives such as video/phone conferencing.
- We will seek to utilise more sustainable modes of transport for all necessary staff and business travel.
3. Company administration
- We will prioritise environmental considerations in our key business decisions.
- We will promote our commitment to environmental protection to all of our customers and suppliers.
4. Carbon footprint
- We will work toward understanding our carbon footprint, with a view to using it to inform our long-term business strategy, including consideration of the feasibility of achieving net zero carbon.
Our Environmental Management System
We have developed an Environmental Action Plan to ensure we meet the requirements of this policy. The Environmental Action Plan, together with this policy, comprises our Environmental Management System (EMS). Our EMS is independently certified by Green Small Business. Our certification is maintained through an annual audit carried out independently by Green Small Business.
We will update this policy at least annually.
