Environmental Policy
The Department of XYZ provides information to the public on the Australian
Governments activities and policies. Its head office is in Parkes, ACT, and there are
branch offices in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Perth. The Department also has
staff embedded in other government agencies in Adelaide, Darwin, Hobart and
Townsville, as well as in Australian consulates in the UK, USA, Hong Kong and
Japan.
The Departments environmental management system applies to all operations and
services of the Department at its head office and branch offices. Staff in other offices
in Australia and overseas are expected to comply with the spirit of this policy in the
context of the organisation in which they work.
We at the Department of XYZ aim at achieving continual environmental improvement
through implementing a management system with objectives and targets
to
minimise our environmental footprint
by
working with staff and other stakeholders
through
pollution prevention practices
in
compliance with legal and other requirements
& be
a role model for others to follow.
