Managing environmental risk

We continue to assess environmental risk in all parts of our business. We are working to manage these risks in line with our values, to cause no harm to people or environment.

Spill prevention

We implement preventative measures to avoid spill incidents and, if a spill does occur, ensure an immediate response to provide scene containment and recovery.
