Measuring environmental performance
In order to ensure environmental risk management and
compliance across all business activities, we have developed
a consolidated Environmental Management System (EMS). In
order to manage this activity across all business areas a Five
Year Environmental Action Plan defines mid-term targets and
key activities to achieve the targets. The purpose of the action
plan is to set five-year goals and targets designed to help the
European operations achieve our overarching Environmental
Policy and vision of ‘Environmental Leadership’. The current
