Environmental, Health and Safety

SGS environment, health and safety: protecting the planet, workers and your business.

Successful businesses protect the environment, their employees, communities and other members of the public. Failure to minimise the impact of your businesses activities will result in censure by employees, regulatory authorities and customers. Increasingly, stakeholders are also looking for evidence to prove you are adhering to best practice.

Your business will undoubtedly already have policies and procedures in place concerning health and safety and protecting the environment. Are you sure they adhere to best practice? Are you certain you are complying with local, national and international regulations? If you are sure, can you prove it?
