COMMITMENTS

 Environment

Environment

ELM’s commitment is to improve the environment while reducing risk for our clients and stakeholders. In many ways our greatest contribution to the environment is achieved through the advice we provide to our clients. Our core activities are focused on managing environmental impacts. Our strengths are providing experienced oversight, ensuring timely and efficient completion of complex projects, and understanding client needs. ELM’s purpose is to restore disturbed land to its natural state and to minimize the impacts of industrial activity.

The very nature of our work in retiring assets benefits the environment. ELM is focused on delivering environmentally sound business solutions to our clients. The depth of our company’s environmental knowledge and expertise allows us to build a framework that mitigates environmental risk and liability allowing our clients to be good environmental stewards and socially responsible.

Health and Safety

Health and Safety

ELM is committed to ensuring we conduct our operations and endeavours in a manner that will protect the health and safety of our employees, clients, contractors, and the public. We expect excellence in health and safety performance through the support and active participation of management, employees, and contractors.

This is not just a corporate directive, but rather a personal responsibility for every ELM Inc. employee. We have adopted Energy Safety Canada’s 10 Lifesaving Rules, to ensure alignment with our clients' and industry’s expectations. Our vision is to integrate health, safety, and the environment into all aspects of our business and create a culture of HSE recognized as a model by the industry and stakeholders.

Indigenous Recognition

Indigenous Recognition

At ELM we value our relationships with Indigenous communities in the areas in which we work. In the spirit of reconciliation in adherence to UNDRIP (the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples), we endeavour to protect indigenous heritage and to maintain open communication and dialogue to gain a further understanding of their needs and greater respect for their culture. ELM supports Indigenous organizations and initiatives that contribute to sustainable social development, through a collaborative framework.

We are engaged in indigenous partnerships and joint venture opportunities founded on these principles. ELM offers contracting opportunities to qualified Indigenous companies, suppliers, and contractors, where appropriate. We believe in building long-term relationships by prioritizing opportunities for qualified local Indigenous vendors to participate in new projects.

Community

Community

At ELM, we believe in being active participants in the communities in which we work. We treat our project areas as if they were our own backyards. Positive relationships in the community are essential to our success. Maintaining an open dialogue with our community partners is a cornerstone of our company philosophy. We take every opportunity to actively participate in community events and initiatives, contributing both financial and human resources.

ELM is pleased to be a silver sponsor of Closer to Home’s Adopt-a-Family initiative which has been giving hope to vulnerable families in Calgary and the surrounding area. Every year the Adopt-a-Family initiative provides gift cards to vulnerable families in Calgary, so they can purchase food, necessities, and gifts.

“Some of us never think about, food, basic necessities and gifts during the holiday season, many never stop thinking if they will have food, necessities, and gifts for their family. A little helps a lot.” says Steve Konopelky, President & CEO at ELM

ELM and Closer to Home share a vision - a future where every child is thriving within the supportive family and community relationships. Our hope is to help parents and caregivers build personal capacity, support families in coming back together after being apart, and work with young people to build the skills needed to create a positive future.
