Safety, Environmental and Quality Management

MPS Group, Inc. is ISO-certified and operates under an integrated Quality and Environmental Management System (QEMS), meeting the requirements of the 9001 Quality and 14001 Environmental international standards. Our certification and our QEMS have been an integral part of the major reorganization and growth initiative we began in 2009. As a result, we continue to see significant and positive changes in our leadership team, management philosophy, business processes, operations and in the continued growth of our company.

The purpose of our QEMS is to:

• Help our organization operate with increased effectiveness and consistency,
• Reduce the impact of our operations, activities and services on the environment, and
• Achieve customer—and other interested parties—satisfaction.

Our MPS Group Farmington Hills facility is certified through TÜV SÜD America, Inc.

Our certificates expire April 7, 2025.

It is every MPS Group employee’s responsibility to ensure quality services are provided to our customers as well as identifying, eliminating or controlling our operational impact on the environment. The QEMS program is our business operating tool for accomplishing this. Our policies encapsulate our commitment and focus on what is important to our organization, which provides a framework and direction for establishing corporate performance metrics and improvement objectives.
