Sustainability
Most of our work is on remote sites and military installations, where fuel, water and waste are difficult to manage. We plan supply and transport to cut unnecessary trips, buy in-country where the client allows it, and leave every site clean when our work is done.
Reducing Our Footprint
- Combined loads and planned routes to avoid empty truck runs
- In-country suppliers to shorten delivery distances
- Fuel-efficient generators and vehicles offered where the requirement allows
- LED lighting and solar options proposed where they fit
- Returnable pallets and reusable packaging where suppliers accept them
- Waste separated on site and removed by licensed contractors
- Fuel, oil and chemicals stored and handled to prevent spills
- Each installation’s environmental rules followed on site
Local Supply and Fair Labor
We hire and buy locally in Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain and Iraq wherever we can. The same rules apply to our own staff and to every subcontractor working for us, as set out in our Combating Trafficking in Persons policy.
- Qualified local suppliers and subcontractors preferred
- No recruitment fees charged to workers
- Workers keep their own passports and identity documents
- Written employment terms in a language the worker understands
- Wages paid in full and on time
- Safe, clean housing where we provide accommodation
- Subcontractors held to the same standards
Environmental Commitment
Hillstone Corporation follows the environmental laws of each country where it works and the environmental terms of every client contract. On active projects we record fuel deliveries, waste removal and any spill or environmental incident, and we correct problems as soon as they are found.
We review these practices every year and update them as our operations grow. Questions or concerns can be sent to info@hillstoneus.com.
