Objectives

Quicksilva is committed to the implementation of an effective environmental policy and takes a holistic approach towards the working and natural environment. The company is proud of its rural location and strives to keep environmental protection at the heart of our culture.

Care will be taken that Quicksilva complies with all existing environmental legislation, regulation and codes of practice.

The Quicksilva Management System will be maintained with consideration given to the impact it may have on environmental issues and will be regularly reviewed to enable continual improvement.

The Company aims to nurture environmental awareness among Quicksilva people and those with whom we come into contact in the course of our business activities.

Scope

The Directors and Managers of Quicksilva are committed to the implementation of the Quicksilva Management System (QMS) for our activities in:

• Software Design, Development, Provision, Maintenance and Support, and
• associated Service Management activities.

Operations at Quicksilva offices will adopt this Environment Policy and will be monitored using the Quicksilva Management System.

The offices are not owned by Quicksilva, but Quicksilva will encourage environmental awareness by the property owners in maintenance of the buildings and surroundings.

Staff on customer sites will adopt the customer’s environmental policies and procedures, and may additionally adopt Quicksilva’s policies and procedures where applicable.
