 AGMET Environmental Health and Safety is very pleased to announce implementation of the Environmental Management System (EMS) Policy as we seek our ISO-14001:2004 certification, an internationally recognized standard for Environmental Management Systems.

Special thanks to each and every one of our employees without whose continued dedication the implementation and compliance to the standards would never have been possible.

Jaime Cleary, Agmet’s Environmental Health and Safety Director views the adoption of the Environmental Management System  as an important step forward in the company’s approach to environmental stewardship. The policy calls for systematic integration of environmental management into all missions, activities, and functions. The policy requires current processes to be continually reviewed to identify better ways to reconcile the company’s practices and environmental stewardship missions.

It is reemphasizing Agmet’s commitment to the environment through our Recycle 100® Philosophy.

EMS is a recognized best management practice implemented by leading corporations worldwide. In industry, it is recognized as a more effective management approach than traditional environmental compliance-based approaches, because it helps to align business and environmental goals.
