HEALTH SAFTY & ENVIRONMENTAL
PROTECTION
Whist pursuing its primary business objective of satisfying customers' needs
, KST is also commited to environmental concerns. An area of 20,000 square
meters has been converted for water treatment processing.
A UASB reactor and a DN/CN system satisfactorily reduces
wastewater effluent to meet stringent government standards.
In september 1999 , KST launched its Environmental
Management System (EMS) and received ISO 14001 certification from QSU in
May 2000.
Safety for employees is another major concern , and KST
has operated the sustainable safety program established by the Ministry
of Labour and Social Welfare since 1997. As a result ,
accidents
have continually decline over the years and since January 2000 , KST has
implemented the zero-accident program and is confident its results will
be equally successful.
