Environment, Health and Safety

Misys is a constituent member of the FTSE4Good index. The Directors are firmly committed to developing and maintaining sound environmental, health and safety standards across its range of businesses and in all its operations. Misys is committed to assessing its impact on the environment wherever practicable and to evaluating the scope for reducing it over the medium and long term.

Misys depends on the hard work and commitment of its employees. It recognises its legal responsibilities to employees, subcontractors and visitors to Misys premises and seeks to ensure their safety and well being in the work place. In 2004 an external international consultancy undertook an environmental, health and safety audit of key Misys sites in the UK, US and India and reported to the Board in December 2004. The report concluded that those key sites were substantially compliant with all relevant legislation.

The Board has set up an Environmental, Health and Safety Working Group to oversee the implementation throughout Misys of the recommendations of the report. The Working Group is sponsored by the Finance Director and is chaired by the Company Secretary. Its members consist of key facilities managers from around the business. The Working Group's remit is to identify risks and process improvements in environmental, health and safety practices across the Group. The Working Group meets approximately four times a year and will report to the Misys plc Board on a regular basis.
