Everbright Environment pays close attention to the environmental impacts brought by its operations and keeps an eye on the environmental management of all projects. The company’s Corporate Policy on Environmental Management provides an important framework for the implementation of the company’s environmental management, striving to minimise the burden on the environment and natural resources imposed by the company. The policy also provides detailed guidance on the management of environmental impacts arising from the company’s operations. Everbright Environment has developed various policies and manuals and provided policy training to ensure their effective execution. Additionally, in order to fully implement environmental monitoring, Everbright Environment continues to thoroughly enforce the Environmental, Safety, Health and Social Responsibility (“ESHS”) Management System, ISO 14001 Environmental Management System and other environmental and safety systems, and extensively utilises technology to enhance the operational effectiveness of all systems. The company also set up the Safety and Environmental Management Committee, to further enhance the efficiency and reliability of environmental monitoring work.
