DAGEM Power Achieves ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 Certifications

DAGEM Power has successfully attained ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 certifications, to go along with previously attained ISO 9001. These internationally recognised standards showcase DAGEM Power’s commitment to environmental management, occupational health and safety and quality.

Every business achievement is only possible through teamwork and building on the work of others, however every ambitious venture needs a champion, someone who can work tirelessly in the background with unwavering dedication. Ruth Terry, who recently joined DAGEM Power as Assistant Business Manager, is that champion and her expertise and guidance were instrumental in streamlining DAGEM Power’s processes, implementing necessary changes, and aligning its operations with the stringent ISO standards.

‘Attaining the ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 certifications is a testament to DAGEM Power’s commitment to sustainable practices and ensuring the health and safety of our workforce. This achievement would not have been possible without the hard work and dedication of our team. I want to congratulate every individual who contributed to this success.‘
