Our Environmental Policy:
Transborder Communication is committed to environmental leadership in all of its business activities. Transborder Communication provides policies to provide a safe, healthful workplace, protecting the environment, conserving energy and natural resources. With these policies in place, we believe that we can achieve a healthy and safe environment.
We are committed to doing and will:
• Be an environmentally responsible neighbour in the community where we operate, and correct incidents or conditions that endanger health, safety, or the environment.
• Develop and improve operations and technologies to minimize waste, and other pollution, minimize health and safety risks and dispose of waste safely and responsibly.
Ex: As we sometimes operate in remote areas, which might not have efficient recycling systems, we will bring back from the field all the non-recyclables items with us.
• Ensure the responsible use of energy throughout our business, including conserving energy improving energy efficiency, and giving preference to renewable over non-renewable energy when feasible.
Ex: We will reduce the carbon impacts of our trip by choosing the most efficient transport solution, sometimes prioritizing trains and buses, instead of planes.
• Conserve natural resources by adopting pollution prevention practices.
Ex: extending the life of equipment through preventive maintenance scheduling, purchasing and reworking used equipment etc.
• Provide a safe and healthful workplace and ensure that personnel are properly trained with the appropriate safety and emergency equipment.
Ex: Collaborators will go through Online training in compliance with our partners’ expectations (United Nations), such Security Training Course, Anti-Fraud and Anti-Corruption Framework Awareness, as well as Prevention of Sexual Exploitation and Abuse before going to the field.
• Propose our services at a preferable fee to environmental organizations, or other organizations acting positively for the protection of the environment and for the planet.
• Promptly correct any practise or condition not in compliance with this policy.
