Safety is a core value and a top priority at ASCO. With the objective of zero incidents, we want our employees to return from work safely each day. We are committed to safeguarding the health, including mental health, and wellbeing of everyone engaged in the delivery of our services. Our focus will always be on the prevention of risk and the development of a positive HSE culture within ASCO.
We measure the environmental impact created by our operations and activities and set annual targets for the continuous improvement of our environmental performance and prevention of pollution.
To achieve this, we pay special attention to:
The ASCO Integrated Management System (AIMS) ensures quality is safeguarded and continually developed. To support our arrangements, we operate a Service Improvement Document (SID) function within our HSSEQ Management system. From here we record and track all areas of improvement to our quality arrangements to ensure that they are maintained to the highest standards.
Our quality system is certified to ISO 9001, this is a standard that was first achieved in 1996 and has been maintained to the present day. ASCO engages Lloyds Register Quality Assurance (LRQA) to provide a world class assessment and certification service in Quality Management Systems and Environmental Management Systems which is backed by expertise and training from its training services business.
In today’s high threat environment, the focus on providing effective security for our business and our clients is more important than ever. Security risks are assessed through the ASCO Group Business Continuity Arrangements.
Every site/base follows a process that carries out:
All of the ASCO Group security arrangements are established under this process and are wholly owned by the senior management team.
