Schenker International (H.K.) Ltd. is committed to managing environmental matters as an integral part of our business. In particular, it is our policy to assure the Environment Management System (EMS) integrity of our processes and facilities at all times and at all places. We will do so by adhering to the following principles:

Compliance
We will comply with all applicable laws and regulations and other requirements to which the company subscribed. The company will implement programs and procedures to assure compliance. Strict compliance with EMS standards will be a key ingredient in the training, performance reviews and incentives of all employees.
Where existing laws and regulations are not adequate to assure protection of human health, safety and the environment, we will establish and meet our own EMS quality standards.

Prevention
We will employ management systems and procedures specifically designed to prevent activities and/or conditions that pose a threat to the environment. We will minimize impact to the working environment and communities in which we operate by employing EMS technologies and operating procedures, as well as being prepared for emergencies.
We will strive to prevent releases to the atmosphere, land or water. We will minimize the amount and toxicity of waste generated and will ensure the safe treatment and disposal of waste.

Communication
We will communicate our commitment to EMS to our employees, vendors and customers. We will solicit their input in meeting our EMS goals and in turn will offer assistance to meet their goals.

Continuous improvement
We will continuously seek opportunities to improve our adherence to these principles, and will periodically review the progress of the actions.
