These objectives are to be attained by ensuring that all the procedures defining the functions

Everyone in the company is responsible for their own quality, whether their work is directly
related to the services of the company or not. All personnel have the capability of identifying
quality problems and are empowered to do something about them.
Principles of Total Quality Leadership
Products and Services: The quality of our products and services is the result of the commitment
our people make to their jobs. The continuous improvement in our products and services reflects
the efforts of our employees.
People: Our ability to compete in the marketplace is the result of our commitment to teamwork.
Employee involvement is our way of life.
Our Approach
The Quality & Environmental Manager is delegated the authority and responsibility for ensuring
that the requirements of the Quality Manual, Company and Section procedures are implemented and
maintained.
The task of monitoring and communicating the effectiveness of the management system is delegated
to the Quality Assurance Department, which reports to senior management on areas requiring
improvement and the communication of customer’s requirements throughout the company.
The Department also establishes and reviews the company's quality objectives.
