Environmental & Sustainability Policy

We recognise that our activities impact on the environment, and as such we have created an environmental  & sustainability policy to help identify and minimise these impacts.

We ensure that our policy is:

·         Regularly checked, updated and agreed by the partners at Yoke Creative

·         Available to the public, our staff and those working on behalf of the company on request.

·         Implemented through our day to day activities

·         Monitored for success on an annual basis.

Yoke Creative commits to:

·         Preventing pollution from activities at our head office and on location.

·         Continual environmental improvement

·         Complying with applicable environmental legal and other requirements.

Yoke Creative aims to:

·         Minimise production of waste and increase recycling rates by following the waste hierarchy (reduce, reuse, recycle) & separate waste according to Welsh       Government Legislation.

·         Minimise consumption of energy and water

·         Minimise the environmental impact of activities on site

·         Minimise emissions from vehicle use, using rail or cycling when practical (inclusive of commuting.)

·         Promote the use of materials with recycled content or from sustainably managed sources.

We recognise the importance of sustainable development and will work with our clients to ensure that our projects meet their sustainability requirements.

Environment

We are committed to continually looking for ways to reduce our impact on the environment and working to prevent pollution. We pay particular attention to waste minimisation and resource efficiency and ensure we source sustainable materials where practically and economically feasible. We take the Government’s aim to reduce the amount of carbon dioxide emitted very seriously. We are looking at ways to minimise our carbon emissions. 

Our People

We are committed to providing a safe working environment that focuses on the prevention of injury and ill health. We believe that everyone has a role to play in creating a safe working environment for themselves, those they work with and also ensuring that the public are not endangered by any of our activities.

Community

We work to ensure that we interact positively with the communities in which we operate. Effective communication is important so that all those who work for us or on our behalf are aware of their responsibilities to ensure a high standard of environmental and community care is maintained.
