Environmental Management System |
|
Environmental sustainability at ABJ begins with our pledge to deploy best practices for waste reduction, energy conservation, wise water use and controlled emissions to air and effluents releases to land & water. ABJ has established an Environmental Management System (EMS) that helps to achieve the environmental compliance obligations and environmental performance goals by properly managing our operations and activities. The EMS helps to minimize the environmental impact caused by our operations while continually improving the environmental performance.
The environmental management system applied in ABJ is based on the principles of ISO 14001; we are now aiming at ISO 14001 certification in the near future. Environmental objectives are also being established for all business lines and service departments and environmental considerations are an integral part of project planning. |
|
Well-established EMS Procedures |
|
Environmental Work Instructions (EWI) have been developed for application to specific elements of ISO 14001 standard requirements. Operational Control Procedures (OCP) are established, implemented and maintained for all operations/ activities that are associated with the significant environmental aspects where their absence could lead to deviation from the environmental policy, objectives and targets.
Project specific Construction Environmental Management Plans (CEMP) and Operation Environmental Management Plans (OEMP) are developed wherever required; they provide a framework for defining actions/ control measures to manage potential environmental impacts during the construction/ operation phase. |
|
Internal Environmental Auditing |
|
Internal environmental audits are conducted at planned intervals to verify the conformance to the planned arrangements for environmental management system requirements. Each audit report is reviewed and commented upon by the top management, and corrective actions, if required, are directly followed up by the senior management.
We believe in keeping the environment clean & green |
