4.6 Environmental Management
The increasing rate of change that human activity imposes on local and global environments is becoming a major source of concern to communities and governments alike. ‘Valuing the environment’ is one of the Queensland Government’s whole-of-government priorities. It encompasses protecting the environment for current and future generations and the responsible and sustainable development of Queensland’s natural and primary resources.
All parties shall work towards incorporating best-practice environmental management into the culture of their organisations. In this way, environmental practices that are above and beyond mere compliance with regulatory requirements will become integrated with day-to-day work practices.
All parties are to comply with all relevant legislation, associated regulations and environmental protection policies concerned with environmental protection.
