Here, an excerpt from CDN's health and safety policy:
CDN
Systems is dedicated to preventing not only injury or ill health of our work
staff, but also to prevent impact to the environment. The management and staff
at CDN Systems are committed to the belief that most items can be reused or
recycled in some fashion and while the company exists to make a profit, it has
a positive impact on the environment by reselling and recycling equipment the
original owner no longer wants. Through
this model CDN dedicates itself to reducing its negative impacts on the
environment and to prevent pollution whenever possible while keeping employees
safe. For CDN there is no aspect of its
operation of greater importance than the health and safety of the
employees. From the front desk
receptionist to the recycle center employee and everyone in between including
drivers and staff out on pickups, safety is everyone’s priority.
In
order to achieve these ideals, CDN has implemented and maintains an EHS
Management System that conforms to the requirements of the ISO 14001:2004 and
OHSAS 18001:2007 standards and complies with applicable EHS legal requirements
and other requirements to which the organization subscribes that relate to
EHS. The EHS Management System provides
the documented framework that has been implemented and is maintained, including
a process for setting and reviewing EHS objectives, and management review with
the purpose of continually improving EHS performance. Each and every employee’s contribution is
vitally important to the success of this program and CDN pledges to train,
support and encourage everyone to have the resources required for successful
implementation.
