All LV offices work in accordance with the requirements of this system which is certified to three governing standards.
Health, Safety and Environment (HSE)
Throughout LV we have a clear commitment to ensuring HSE is our number one priority, we instil a safety culture where staff are empowered and confident in making decisions based on this principle. Safety will always remain our number one priority. It is recognised by all LV staff as being all inclusive and not exclusive to those who passionately believe in safety. It is at the forefront of every action we take and it is essential that we challenge poor practice and recognise and reward good practice.
Security
Security is a vital element of our service and key to the success of the company. Everyone in the organization is responsible for taking the necessary precautions that will safeguard consignments and assets entrusted to our care. We must therefore create secure environments that can be trusted by our customers. Information – Information that belongs to the company must be protected from unauthorised disclosure. This applies to all modes of communication including electronic records, paper, disks & memory sticks.
Systems – Security mechanisms must be implemented in all LV computer systems to ensure availability and confidentiality of information. Stringent logical access controls and audit trails will always be employed to protect against external and internal threats to our systems.
Staff – Controls are in place to ensure LV engages only employees and suppliers whose integrity and profiles enable us to comply with our security policy.
Compliance
At LV we make a commitment to pursue our business in compliance with all legal, regulatory and governing legislation. It is our objective to maintain, strengthen and protect our reputation for integrity and business compliance. This is achieved by robust leadership and management which is driven by our board of directors and implemented by senior management.
In order to bolster our procedures we have invested in employee training in this field as well as gaining AEO status. In line with industry requirements relating to pre-qualification and in order to demonstrate our capabilities LV have also chosen to Register and subsequently become verified with two of Achilles supplier databases, Fpal and UVDB.
