1. Environmental Management
Barclays recognises that the management of environmental impacts is integral to good business
practice, as is outlined within the Barclays Environmental Sustainability Policy. We encourage our
Suppliers to join us in similar environmental efforts to implement Environmental Management Systems
(EMS) as appropriate to their businesses, and align with best practice activities including the following:
• Set Environmental Targets
Maintain environmental policies, objectives or targets which as a minimum include
commitments to identify, measure and reduce significant environmental impacts.
• Reduce Environmental Impacts
Endeavour to reduce operational environmental impacts. Impacts could include resource
consumption, air emissions (including those contributing to climate change), water
consumption, management of hazardous materials, recycling and waste production.
• Report Progress
Disclose required information or provide to Barclays, as appropriate, data to demonstrate
environmental performance
