Page 8 - What to look for in a recycling and waste management provider

Your recycling and waste management partner
should be able to demonstrate their commitment
to the health and safety of all its employees,
customers, and people in the communities they
serve. They should have a clear and positive
health and safety culture across the company,
involving and engaging the workforce at all times.

A safe and ethical partner should be governed
by some sort of Health, Safety and Welfare Policy.
This policy should state clear objectives, designed
to help ensure no harm comes to anyone as a
result of their services.

Viridor is committed to ensuring the health
and safety of all its employees, customers, and
people in the wider community we serve. We
have worked hard to develop a positive health
and safety culture across the company, working
together to achieve our corporate safety target
to achieve and maintain zero RIDDOR (Reporting
of Injuries, Diseases and Dangerous Occurrences
Regulations) events.

We have held and maintained certification to
ISO 18001 Occupational Health and Safety
Management System standards since 2007. And
yet, to further ensure all employees and site
visitors have health and safety at the front of their
minds, we have also embarked on a ‘home safe’
campaign which we would be happy to introduce
to any of your staff.
