Environmental issues are central to all the activities of Totalpost Services Plc.  We recognise the importance of striving for excellence in all aspects of compliance, whether this be in Quality, Health and Safety or the Environment.

We have been working in partnership with Cumbria Business Environment Network to develop an Environmental Management System (EMS) which follows the principles of ISO14001, this standard is the Environmental equivalent of ISO9001, which we already hold for our Quality Management System. We have currently achieved our Bronze certification and are continually working on our Silver and Gold level awards.

As an environmentally aware organisation, managing environmental issues in a systematic way is important to us.  Through the continual development of our EMS we endeavour to make our products and services more sustainable.  Developing our EMS to the CBEN Gold Award Standard will help us minimise the negative impacts and maximise our positive impact on the environment.

In order to make continual improvements to our environmental performance, we recognise the need to set ourselves achievable objectives and targets, implementing them through environmental improvement programmes. Any actions needed to ensure targets are being properly managed, monitored and measured will be identified and appropriate action taken by the Compliance Manager in co-ordination with relevant staff.
