FREQUENT TOOLS DESCRIPTION

International Organization for Standardization (ISO), the Society of Environmental
Toxicology and Chemistry (SETAC), and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, have
documented standard procedures for conducting an LCA.
These procedures are generally consistent with each other; they are all scientific,
transparent, and repeatable.
http://www.pre-sustainability.com/life-cycle-assessment
SimaPro allows you to model products and systems from a life cycle perspective.
Users build complex models in a systematic and transparent way using SimaPro's unique
features such as parameters and Monte Carlo analysis. SimaPro comes fully integrated with
the well known ecoinvent database and is used for a variety of applications, like:
Carbon footprint calculation
Product design and eco-design
Environmental Product Declarations (EPD)
Environmental impact of products or services
Environmental reporting (GRI)
Determining of key performance indicators
www.ATHENAsmi.ca
The Athena Institute works with sustainability leaders in product manufacturing,
building design, construction, and green labeling programs to enable smaller footprints
in the production and consumption of construction materials.
 The PROMETHEE method is a multi-criteria decision aid system that permits the building
of an outranking between different alternatives.

EMPLOYER: REQUESTS AND REQUIREMENTS

Employer's responsibility extends beyond simply transporting people, and
includes the environment, working environment, and security and responsibility
for employees.

The Company therefore has the following corporate social responsibility
objectives:

– To ensure reliable, environmentally friendly public transport.

– To create a safe infrastructure for both passengers and employees.

– To ensure a sound working environment during the construction of new
infrastructures and for the operation of the existing infrastructures
administrated.

– To ensure sound working conditions, including salary and employment
conditions that can contribute to attracting and retaining employees.

CONTRACTOR: OPERATIVE CONTROL
SUBCONTRACTOR ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT

The heart of ISO14001 is Subcontractor Management:

• It’s necessary, but not sufficient, to have clear Environmental requirements in
the Contract.

• It’s is necessary that Procurement is supported by Technical specifications
where environmental requirements are clearly stated.

• Contracts need to be administered by people and people need to care.

• That means trusting the contractor and verifying their requirements are met.

• Are contractors trained? Do they know the procedures? Are they following the
procedures? Are they working safely? Do they have the right equipment? How
do you know?

• Are you asking these questions once a year (or less) or is it integrated into
how you manage your contract work force?

CONTRACTOR: OPERATIVE CONTROL
SUBCONTRACTOR ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT

Contractors and
• Go to the Site – talk to your contractor’s employees and Employer’ site
engage them in conversations in their work areas. Inspectors

• Engage Contractors – Ensure your contractors know Audit on
Subcontractors
that safety is important to you and be relentless in your
dialog about Environment.

Monitoring of
• Instill Operational Discipline – Ensure that there are
environmental
procedures and that those procedures are known and performance
followed. DBMN

•Trust and Verify – Pick an aspect of Environmental safety
and engage your contractors to verify that your Measure the
requirements are being met. If not, develop a plan to get impacts
into compliance.

CONTRACTOR: COMMUNICATION
TO EXTERNAL PARTIES

• Meeting with Authority and ordinary site supervision – Authority has
full right to enter on sites and Contractor is called to explain the Env&Safety
protection practices.

• Talking to the Citizens – Planning of frequent meeting with Citizens
representatives and invitation on site is useful to show the Environmental
protection practices. It is also motivating for Site manager and
subcontractor’ manager which are directly engaged to explain and give
evidence of protection procedures and facilities.

• Third parties-Employer-Contractor agreements or Common
commitment documents signature – Ensure that there specific
procedures are followed for peculiar protection need, as presence of public
parks, monuments, schools or any other sensitive area or property. Those
document are helpful to create a communication management system among
parties.

During the meetings with the Stakeholders, all the agreements taken by
Contractor must be respected to avoid further conflicts.

TECHNOLOGY/IDEAS EXAMPLES

Israeli engineers are about to begin testing a
stretch of what may become the road of the
future. The road contains piezoelectric crystals
that produce electricity when squeezed,
enabling them to harvest some of the energy
which vehicles lose to the environment during
their journeys.

The system is expected to produce up to 400
kilowatts from a 1-kilometre stretch of dual
carriageway and the technology is also
applicable to airport runways and rail systems.
In addition to being able to produce its own
power, the system can also deliver real-time
data on the weight, frequency and speed of
passing vehicles as well as the spacing between
vehicles.

CONCLUSIONS

“We have looked in the centuries
at the economic growth in an
agricultural way, and in industrial
way and then it came
Information Technology; but
today, we look at economic
growth in a Sustainable way.”

Michael Koplovsky, Economic
Consoler by U.S. mission at
OECD - 2012.
