Environment
Hargy Oil Palms's environmental and sustainability programmes are based on the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) and International Organization for Standardization (ISO) management systems. These programmes assess environmental, safety, and social risks, implement control measures to mitigate them, and monitor performance to ensure continuous improvement.
Hargy Oil Palms embraces the principles of sustainable development, including responsible resource stewardship, effective pollution prevention, and efficient production. It is committed to operating responsibly, minimising environmental impacts, and ensuring that future generations continue to benefit from its activities.
The implementation of an Environmental Management System (EMS) provides the framework to achieve these goals. Hargy Oil Palm's environmental policy forms the foundation for its environmental management programmes across all operations, which include:
- Complying with relevant environmental legislation
- Minimising or eliminating pollution
- Minimising impacts on biodiversity and ecosystems
- Preventing degradation and erosion of any land under company control
- Continuously improving environmental performance
- Influencing company stakeholders to be environmentally responsible
- Providing adequate resources to implement environmental management programmes
