Executive Summary
Following a workplace sustainability policy is absolutely imperative for any company or organization
in Australia that believes in conserving the environment while doing good for the society and for the
public at the same time. Workplace sustainability policies require a lot of planning and organization
prior to execution and and there is a lot of monitoring and supervision that needs to be put into
place in order to make sure that such a policy runs successfully for the long term. This report
outlines a detailed workplace sustainability policy framework that can be used whenever required by
the Victoria Transport Association in order to ensure efficient rendition of its services while looking
into the wellbeing of the local communities and also the environment in Melbourne and other parts
of Victoria.
Section 1 Introduction
Develop workplace sustainability policy
Aim of the Policy
1.1 Scope of sustainability policy is defined
The purpose of this policy is to establish the objectives and aims for developing an efficient
effective and sustainable transportation system in the state of Victoria in Australia. It is required for
supporting the logistics industry and also for ensuring that the industry is equipped with all the
infrastructure, investment and plans that it needs in order to maintain the integrity and reputation
of the transportation system well into the year 2025 and beyond. It is necessary for the logistics
industry to have quick and easy access to investment and infrastructure in order for it to survive as
well as to thrive. Both private and government investment is required in large proportions if the
logistics industry is to grow as well as deliver all of its important and essential services to a
community that is global in its shape and character, for both the immediate as well as the long term.
The policy, it is hoped will ensure the smooth and hassle free rendition of efficient transportation
services for the Victorian public all through the year without causing any damage or adverse impact
on the surrounding environment. The policy will incorporate all the latest waste management and
environmental sustainability strategies and techniques to make sure that this is the case.
