LRQA's certification of TNT UK/Ireland's ISO
14001 is featured in the October edition of Sustainable Business
Magazine.
The article highlights the importance that TNT places on being
ISO
14001 certified by LRQA. Here is a sampling of the statements
and quotes included in the article:
TNT has now been certified by Lloyd's Register Quality
Assurance for ISO 14001 as part of the group's strategic objective
to achieve this standard in addition to ISO9001 (quality
management) OHSAS18001 (occupational health and safety management)
and Investors in People for the benefit of TNT staff.
The business has received widespread public acclaim as a
result of its ISO14001 certification and the initiatives that have
resulted from it. Neil Griffiths, director of health, safety and
environment at TNT Express Services says: "In terms of business
assurance, this is not just a tick in the box."
"For us it's about continuous improvement; it's more than
just a certificate that hangs on the wall. It's about creating good
business benefits from a robust environmental management
system."
TNT has reported significant competitive advantage from
the achievement of verifiable environmental performance.
