QHSE & SUSTAINABILITY

QHSE

NextGeo is committed to delivering products and services of a consistently high quality throughout the entire lifecycle of projects while ensuring the health and safety of employees and all involved are always safeguarded, and proper regard is paid to the conservation of the environment.

NextGeo adopts an Integrated QHSE Management System (IMS) which embodies all aspects of QHSE risk-based thinking, knowledge management, and risk and opportunities management. The principle of our IMS is to ensure that our work is performed safely, effectively, and consistently, and that the customer’s requirements are delivered in a professional and efficient manner. All NextGeo personnel follow a structured plan of continuous professional development and hold the necessary knowledge and skills to provide a service of quality, thus ensuring clients’ satisfaction.

NextGeo IMS has been granted ISO 9001:2015, 14001:2015 and 45001:2018 certifications by DNV-GL (Det Norske Veritas – Germanischer Lloyd), in accordance with the requirements of the relevant national and international legislation.

SAFETY CULTURE LADDER

Thanks to the encouragement of one of its most prestigious customers, NextGeo has determined to make a step forward in its overall safety approach to work by accepting – and winning – the challenge of the Safety Culture Ladder assessment process.

The Safety Culture Ladder (SCL) is an assessment method for measuring safety awareness and conscious safe acting (culture and behaviour) in companies. The emphasis is on the safety culture. The SCL is intended as a measure to encourage companies and their suppliers to consciously work safely. The higher the safety awareness in an organisation, the higher the assigned ladder step. The SCL is the basis of a certification system for different sectors where physical safety is a greater risk, such as construction, energy and chemical industries.

Following a thorough and meticulous evaluation procedure, NextGeo proudly achieved the coveted certification in February 2022 by LRQA (formerly Lloyd’s Register).
