Mott MacDonald Group
Environment
Group Policy Statement
January 2009
We are an international consultancy working to turn ideas into
reality, delivering solutions touching many areas of everyday life:
from transport, energy, water and the environment to buildings,
industry, communications, health and education.
1. Commitment
The Mott MacDonald Group is committed to the integration of
environmental considerations into all areas of corporate activity
and to implement a process of continual improvement in this regard.
This encompasses not only the Group’s internal practices and
procedures, but also the services which it provides to clients. In
each country in which it works, the Group will comply with all
legal requirements, including relevant codes and standards and any
specific client requirements.
2. Responsibility
Richard Williams is the Board Director responsible for the Group
Environmental Policy and for the effective implementation,
maintenance and review of the Environmental Management System.
William Mathieson has been appointed Group Quality Environment and
Safety Systems Manager responsible for the effective and economic
application, operation and development of the system on a day to
day basis.
3. Approach
The Group aims to build all relevant environmental practices into
its activities, and, as far as is reasonably practicable, energy
and raw materials are drawn from sustainable and non-polluting
sources and used effectively. The Group also aims to prevent
pollution of any kind when conducting its activities. Environmental
considerations are taken into account when procuring equipment,
goods, materials and services for the Group. The Group is committed
to recycling and reuse, as opposed to disposal, where
feasible.
The Group expects its employees and organisations and individuals
working on its behalf to conduct their activities in an
environmentally responsible manner. In all its activities the Group
will endeavour to bring relevant environmental issues to its
clients’ attention. The aim is to seek environmental protection and
improvement through the services provided by the Group.
To achieve this it is the policy of the Mott MacDonald Group Board
to apply and maintain an effective Environmental Management System
complying with the requirements of International Standard ISO
14001: 2004 and operating in connection with other management
functions including the Quality Management and Health and Safety
Systems. Internal practices and all project work undertaken by the
Group in the United Kingdom and progressively world-wide are
required to comply with the Environmental Management System.
