Environmental Policy
Wallbridge is committed to the principals of Sustainable Development. The Company diligently applies technically proven and economically feasible measures to protect the environment in all of its exploration activities.
To achieve these goals, Wallbridge will:
- Comply with or exceed the legislative requirements in all jurisdictions in which it operates;
- Require contractors to comply with this policy;
- Ensure that employees at all levels understand their environmental responsibilities and work towards improvement of the workplace environment
- Identify, plan, assess and manage all projects towards the minimization of adverse effects on the environment;
- Support research to advance understanding of industry's impact on the environment and to reduce harmful effects through improved practices and technologies;
- Develop, design and operate facilities in a socially and environmentally friendly manner;
- Develop, maintain and test emergency preparedness plans to ensure protection of the environment, the Company's employees and the public;
- Work proactively with government and the public to develop effective, efficient, and equitable measures to protect the environment based on sound science;
- Contribute to the dissemination of environmentally sound technology and management methods;
- Monitor the environmental impact of the Company's activities and report regularly to the Board of Directors;
- Reclaim work sites in accordance with site-specific criteria in a planned and timely manner.
To ensure compliance with its policies Wallbridge has in place an Employee Orientation and Code of Conduct Manual and a Safety, Health, Environmental and Community Relations Policy Manual, which is disseminated to all its employees and service providers. Additionally during our Company orientation at the beginning of the field season, each employee, including hires for the summer season, are reacquainted with Company policies as well as receiving training to carry out their work in a safe manner.
The Employee Orientation and Code of Conduct Manual contains a formal "Whistleblower Policy". This policy contains procedures that allow employees to confidentially and anonymously submit their concerns without fear of retaliation to an independent third party, regarding questions of ethical, moral, accounting, internal accounting controls or auditing matters.
