Accreditations

We have been recognised by EMAS (the Eco-Management and Audit Scheme) as a company who is striving to continuously improve its environmental performance. It is a requirement of our EMAS accreditation for us to regularly publish our Environmental Statement. The statement is independently checked for accuracy and reliability by an environmental verifier.

The EMAS validation was completed on 10th June 2008.

We have also gained ISO14001 certification in 2008 and ISO 9000 in 2002.

Company Awards

Best Companies accreditation 2008
Our company was awarded with the coveted two-star status accreditation for Best Companies 2008, recognising its outstanding workplaces and investment in its people. The elite national accreditation scrutinises workplace engagement and sets a benchmark for other companies. One of seven employers within the energy sector, we were the only renewable company to be listed for outstanding performance. The accreditation follows a `Michelin star' rating system for organisations that demonstrate high levels of employee engagement. Based on staff feedback, organisations receive a Best Companies Index score, which determines their star rating compared to a fixed standard.
