Integrated Management System Policy

KBSI believes that protecting the environment and providing a safe workplace for its employees and visitors is a responsibility shared by management and employees.  KBSI sees no conflict between its role of providing quality products and services and our responsibility for both complying with environmental regulation and providing a safe workplace.  KBSI is committed to implementing an Integrated Environmental and Health and Safety Management System to promote compliance with applicable federal, state, and local regulatory requirements.

KBSI’s approach to its IMS is to focus on creating a safe work environment while maintaining compliance with applicable environmental regulations and developing and implementing a program for continually improving EH&S compliance and performance. Once the baseline for EH&S compliance and performance is developed, it is possible to identify goals and targets for a continuing process of measurement, correction, and enhancement.

KBSI’s process for planning and implementing this integrated management system includes:

• Defining responsibility and assigning accountability
• Employee safety and environmental compliance training.
• Assessing environmental risk.
• Assessing workplace safety.
• Routinely checking compliance
• Conducting system assessments.
• Corrective actions.
• Preventing injury and illness in the workplace.
• Preventing pollution.
  

KBSI‘s IMS relies on these essential components to ensure that employees understand their compliance obligations and that appropriate resources are available to implement and sustain compliance. KBSI requires that all employees follow the procedures established by the IMS.

The Integrated Management System (IMS) defines KBSI’s continual process for recognizing, managing, and mitigating environmental impacts, preventing injury and illness at the workplace, developing a safety culture, and for achieving and managing sustainable compliance.
