Environmental Management System
Telenor Group makes protecting the environment an integral part of its daily activities. Environmental Management Systems are implemented in all Business Units to ensure continuous improvement of the company.
Focus areas in Telenor’s Environmental Management System:
- Energy Consumption
- CO2 Emissions
- Emissions to Water, Soil and Air
- Waste Management and Recycling
- Environmental impact of installations and Electro Magnetic Fields
- Sustainable Procurement
Through our Group Environment Policy and related procedures, we aim to ensure that protecting the environment becomes an integral part of our day-to-day business. This in turn will affect everyone who is connected to Telenor - from suppliers and shareholders, to customers and society at large.
In 2010, all Telenor Business Units worked to establish and implement Environmental Management Systems based on the ISO 14001 standard. The implementation was coordinated through a Group-wide project. Each Business Unit’s Environmental Management System (EMS) is based upon the following:
- Environmental aspects compiled and reported annually according to the requirements of Non-Financial Reporting
- Group Environmental Policy and Group Procedure Environmental Management
- All legal and other requirements regarding environmental matters.
DIGI in Malaysia was certified in July 2010, and several business units are planning to complete the certification by the end of the year. Telenor`s main ambition is to ensure that all Business Units have a well-functioning Environmental Management System in place
