Annual Report 2013
Quality, Safety & Health and Environment
(QSHE) Report
The Group is fully committed to provide quality products
and services and ensure the timely delivery of these
products and services to our customers, shareholders,
and the general public. We first achieved our
internationally recognised ISO 9001 Quality Management
System certification back in 1997 – a testament to our
uncompromising commitment to quality.
The Group is also dedicated to provide a safe and healthy
work environment to our employees and those under our
care, while maintaining an environmentally responsible
approach to our businesses. With this in mind, we
expanded and improved our Management System further
and as a result, we achieved the ISO 14001 Environmental
Management System and the OHSAS 18001 / MS 1722
Occupational Health and Safety Management Systems
certification in 2008.
With an aim to streamline the requirements and
operations of our Management Systems, we decided to
integrate these three Management Systems into a single
entity, appropriately termed Quality, Safety & Health and
Environmental (QSHE) Management Systems.
We strive to continually review and improve our QSHE
Management Systems as times change to support the
growth direction of the Group.
