Harte recognises that our operations directly impact on the natural and built environment and have made Environmental Management an integral part to the success of the company.
Our objectives and targets will be established by the management team and we will continually assess the environmental implications of our activities and seek the co-operation from Clients, Subcontractors, Suppliers and our Employees in minimising adverse effects and continually improving environmental performance.
