Kimberley Berube-Boyle: Une journée dans les chaussures d’un auditeur: FPAC 2022 Green Dream Internship Program

August 24, 2022

La certification forestière est un bon moyen d’assurer la foresterie durable et la pérennité de nos ressources. Chez Produits forestiers Résolu — Côte-Nord, le territoire est doublement certifié, soit par les normes FSC® et SFI®. De plus, le système de gestion de l’environnement et lui aussi certifié par la norme ISO 14001.  

Comment s’assurer que les normes provenant des différentes certifications forestières soient respectées?  

En évaluant le degré de maitrise des opérations et la conformité vis-à-vis les différentes normes, il est possible d’améliorer les procédures mises en place et de trouver des solutions lorsque les procédures ne suffisent pas. Les audits internes, soit ceux réalisés par la Société, permettent de réaliser un suivi concernant tous les critères évalués par les différentes normes, que ce soit au niveau du territoire ou au niveau du système de gestion environnemental.

Dans le cadre de mon stage, j’ai eu la chance de passer une journée complète avec Étienne Vézina, directeur principal, Foresterie chez Résolu, afin d’effectuer un audit interne au niveau du système de gestion environnemental, soit le certificat ISO 14001. Cette journée dans les chaussures d’un auditeur m’a fait comprendre qu’il y a toujours place à amélioration et que les audits internes étaient un bon moyen de trouver des pistes de solution afin de parfaire nos méthodes de travail.  

Merci Étienne pour cette journée très enrichissante!
