Health, Safety and Environment
Health and Safety
Health and safety is a fundamental aspect in our day-to-day business activities. Ohly is committed to providing a safe and healthy working environment in line with local regulations to protect employees, visitors and the public from any foreseeable work hazards. To support the monitoring of our health and safety performance, internal work safety audits and inspections take place continuously. In order to ensure a high level of safety awareness Ohly also provides regular trainings to the Ohly employees.
Environment
The protection and responsible handling of our environment are essential elements of our daily activities. Our Hamburg site targets compliance with ISO 14001 and ISO 50001.
Based on continuous improvements of our process, regular internal and external assessments and quantifying environmental impacts of our operations, we work on minimising the discharges of our plants. We strive to:
- Minimise air emissions, effluent and waste disposal;
- Efficient usage of energy;
- Invest in substantial energy conservation and reduction programmes;
- Minimise the impact of incidents with effective emergency response procedures.
The environmental performance of our business is regularly being reviewed by the managing board.
To support the continuous improvement process of work safety and environment we have a worker’s proposal and rewarding system in place with special focus on safety, health and environment.
