Client Benefits

With the support of EMS, Skymark have reduced the risk rating of their environmental permit from high to medium, with the lowest score achieved in 2016 since 2010. The company has also increased compliance with their Environmental Management System and have reduced the number of non-conformities raised during audits.

The Challenges

Due to the nature of the activities that Skymark carry out on site and resultant production of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), Skymark is subject to an A2 Permit held with the Local Authority. It was recognised that by protecting the environment they are also able to provide a safe workplace for their staff.  In order to assist with this, EMS were appointed to support the company to maintain environmental compliance.

The Solution

EMS provided a dedicated and qualified Environmental Consultant to initially review existing documentation and control measures to ensure the current systems met the conditions of the environmental permit and ISO14001:2004 requirements. After the first few months of support, the EMS Environmental Consultant completed internal audits against the requirements of the ISO14001:2004 standards. In addition to this, EMS provided support through training on the environmental permit and Environmental Management System for the staff working with the management of the permit and system.

EMS continue to work closely with Skymark carrying out internal audits of the Environmental Management System and providing support during ISO14001 surveillance visits.

Testimonial

In a very competitive climate it’s difficult to find a budget for consultants but in the case of EMS it was more of an investment with an immediate return. Unlike many consultancy programs, EMS agreed a set of objectives then came and worked alongside us to drive us towards our goals. Before they came we spent a fortune going nowhere fast. With their guidance we spent a little getting somewhere fast.
