Corporate social responsibility (CSR) statement

Armadillo is committed to creating business growth whilst ensuring that impact on the environment is minimised and that all activities are conducted safely by well-trained and qualified employees.

The main responsibility for developing corporate policies on social, ethical and environmental matters and for reviewing their effectiveness lies with the Armadillo board. It is then the responsibility of individual managers to communicate and implement such policies within their particular business area taking account of legislation to ensure compliance with the policy and to maintain, review and refine procedures accordingly.

Armadillo policies and procedures, including those relating to social, environmental, health and safety, employment and ethical matters, are communicated to all staff via the Armadillo Employee Handbook. All policies and procedures are reviewed regularly, any updates are communicated to staff.
