We have started the development of an environmental management system with the aid of EcoCompass-programme. Although we have worked with environmental projects for a long time, with a certified environmental system we are able to reduce and manage the adverse environmental impacts of our operations more effectively and to commit to the principle of continuous improvement. The system covers the impact of all our operations both at sea and on shore. The certificate is based on international environmental management standards and the system helps us to communicate our environmental achievements in a transparent and credible manner. With the basic mapping of the Ecocompass and the target program, we will later move towards the introduction of the ISO 14001 standard.
For the period 2021-2022, we have selected the following areas for development:
a) Waste reduction and sorting
b) Material efficiency
c) Chemicals
d) Staff mobility
e) Communication
f) Influencing
g) Biodiversity
