DPD Polska has obtained the ISO 14001:2004 certificate, confirming the implementation and application of an effective environmental management system. The certification process lasted from February to July of this year. In doing so, DPD Polska is currently setting new standards in the industry while simultaneously increasing the environmental awareness of its business partners and customers.
The most important task of the ISO 14001 standard is to support activities aimed at protecting the natural environment, as well as minimizing the negative effects of business operations. The main idea of certification according to this standard is the continuous improvement of the company in this area. The formal certification process for DPD Polska began in February of this year. It was accompanied by a wide-ranging information and educational campaign among the company’s employees and associates.
– At DPD Polska, we attach great importance to pro-ecological activities. Our concern for the natural environment is reflected in various spheres of our operations. For years, we have been conducting educational activities aimed at our employees and subcontractors, consisting of simple solutions: from “turn off the light” stickers to our internal Green News newsletter – says Rafał Nawłoka, CEO of DPD Polska. – We make every effort to rationally use the natural resources necessary to conduct our business. At the same time, we place great emphasis on reducing CO2 emissions by the vehicles of our employees and associates – he adds.
These are just some of the actions implemented by DPD Polska to minimize its adverse impact on the environment and prevent pollution. The projects that have been implemented in connection with the certification process fit perfectly into the company’s green policy.
– Care for the natural environment has already become a permanent part of DPD Polska’s mission – says Rafał Nawłoka. – The awarding of the ISO certificate confirms that our previous actions were correct. We will certainly not rest on our laurels, but will continue to implement new pro-ecological ideas for the benefit of not only the environment, but all of us. After all, the natural environment is our common good – he adds.
