Veolia’s ISO 9001-certified Business Manual System, with its incorporation of ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001 standards for managing environmental impact and safety-related risks, ensures that uniform, standardised procedures are in place at each of BMS’s sites.

Moreover, Veolia has proposed several solutions to improve energy efficiency, reduce their water consumption and recover waste at BMS facilities.
