  • Taking all practical steps to ensure that potential hazards and risks to the environment are identified and that suitable and effective preventative and control measures are implemented.

  • To uphold this policy and assist in achieving these objectives, Peek will ensure that its staff are provided with the necessary resources and training, and will operate a documented Environmental Management System that satisfies the requirements of EN ISO 14001:2004 and National Highways Sector Scheme 8.


Peek will fully comply with the duties placed upon it by legislation, whilst at all times complying with, as a matter of best practice, the requirements and duties set out within Approved Guidance issued by the Environment Agency and other organisations.

All employees and contractors are expected to co-operate and assist in the implementation of this policy, whilst ensuring that their own works, so far as is reasonably practicable, are carried out without risk to themselves, others or the environment. This includes co-operating with Peek’s management and / or Peek’s Environmental Department on any environment related matter.

Management and supervisory staff have responsibility for the implementation of the policy and must ensure that environmental issues are given adequate consideration in the planning and day-to-day supervision of all work.

The Directors have overall responsibility for all environmental matters. The operation of this policy and the associated procedures will be monitored and reviewed on a regular basis to ensure that they remain current and applicable to the company's activities.
