Policy Statement

Our Business Ethics

We practice honesty, integrity and fairness in all aspects of our business and seek to establish the same merits with all parties with whom we may trade.

We have an established track record of delivering on our promises and of meeting the standards we set ourselves.

At System, we genuinely work in partnership with our clients to identify and meet their needs and to develop a management approach in achieving the aims and objectives of training solutions and consultancy services.

System Group performance is positively managed through analysis of Key Performance Indicators (KPI), derived from statistical information relating to every operating unit and section of the business. The performance measurement process is a dynamic tool, enabling us to effectively manage and continuously improve the integrity of Group and employee performance along with the range of services we provide.

We evaluate and introduce the latest relevant E-tech systems in all areas of the business to ensure we continually improve our operating performance to the benefit of our clients.

The direct or indirect offer, payment, soliciting and acceptance of bribes in any form are unacceptable practices and are prohibited throughout the organisation.

Our Environmental Policy

Our objective: "Environmentally safe operation of all activities with no damage to people, property and the environment".

We acknowledge our responsibility to minimise any adverse impact of our activities on the environment in which we operate and have a track record of providing environmentally conscious training and consultancy solutions.

Reflecting our environmental policy, we have established day-to-day working practices directing each operating unit within the Group to adopt and comply with environmental policy appropriate to its particular activity. This covers a range of areas including energy conservation, vehicle exhaust emissions and minimising waste along with waste recycling where appropriate.

The Group will:

  • Comply with all applicable statutory requirements
  • Continually assess and, where possible, improve our environmental performance
  • Have awareness of environmental considerations related to investment strategy
  • Promote understanding of environmental issues among employees

Our Health & Safety Policy

Our objective is to provide a safe and healthy work environment for all employees, contractors and visitors to the company. Management standards and codes of practice are key elements in meeting the statutory requirements of the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974, all other legal requirements and stated objectives.

We avail ourselves of the advice available through the Health and Safety Executive and, where appropriate, utilise competent consultants and independent bodies with special skills and services during some internal audits.

Our policy is to provide and maintain safe and healthy working conditions, equipment and systems of work for all employees and to provide such information, instruction, training and supervision as may be required for this purpose.

Equality and Diversity

System Group is an Equal Opportunities Employer and always observes a strict code of practice that ensures no employee, job applicant or trainee receives less favourable treatment on grounds which are unlawful or which are not relevant to the requirements of the particular job.

Our policies and procedures are designed to ensure that the human rights of all job applicants or trainees, and all employees whether directly employed or sub-contracted, are respected in accordance with internationally recognised standards.

Our Staff

Our staff are key to the achievement of our business aims and objectives, and also to facilitate our expansion into new areas. We carefully select, develop and retain our staff on the basis of ability and qualifications for the work to be performed without discrimination or prejudice including race, religion, colour, gender, sexual orientation, age or physical ability.

Our reputation as a good place to work is reflected in the many job applications received annually.
