Our Environmental Policy
We are committed to achieving continuous improvement in environmental
performance. We are evolving our environmental policy country by
country as we take a more global approach to our business. Wilson
Hogg, Global Facilities Director, is responsible for our environmental
programme and he along with both his actual team and a network of
voluntary environmental champions work to promote both company and
personal adoption of environmentally responsible behaviour. Broadly
we state an intention to reduce our environmental impacts through
improvements in:
- Energy use
- Waste reduction, including the disposal of goods
- Recycling initiatives, including office paper schemes
- Business and commuter travel
- Our use of high impact coolants and refrigerants
- Purchasing and contract management
- Staff training and communication on environmental issues
- Continually improvements to comply with standards applicable
in each country
For example Experian is accredited to ISO14001 for its Nottingham
portfolio of premises for which a very specific
policy applies. An integrated global policy is more of a challenge
but through communication of clear, globally agreed objectives and
targets and a great sense of global cooperation, many positive environmental
changes are already taking place as we evolve our policy. This year
objectives were focused around a number of significant aspects which
included:
Waste -
Controlled waste production
Energy -
Renewable energy consumption, energy efficiency and non-renewable energy
consumption
People -
Staff training, external communication and internal communication
Transport -
Travelling to work by car, fuel consumption of company vehicles and
emissions of company vehicles
