Environmental Awareness Online Training Course

Our online environmental awareness training course can be used to provide your employees with to general Environmental Awareness training and more specifically information about the requirements of the Environmental Protection Act and current best practice. Discharges of hazardous/noxious substances into the environment (ground, air or watercourse) which result in polluting the environment can result in companies and/or individuals being prosecuted.  The fines and penalties associated with breaches of environmental legislation are generally far greater than those associated with health and safety offences.  It is therefore important to ensure that you and your employees are aware of and compliant with the requirements of current legislation.

Corporate Responsibility and environmental issues such as global warming mean that more and more organisations are reviewing their impact on the environment and while this is often driven by the large corporate organisation (clients and contractors) the effects filter down to all levels of the supply chain.  This means that even small sub-contractors and suppliers will often be expected to demonstrate their commitment to environmental issues, prior to the award of a new contract.

A key element of environmental management involves the minimisation and recycling of waste, this has the potential to save every organisation money.  Waste disposal not only impacts on the environment, but it also affects profit margins and contract costs, so good environmental management also makes good business sense.

Furthermore, failing to adhere with environmental legislation can result in severe penalties. If you are serious about your environmental responsibilities, it is important to get all staff on board to help ensure compliance. We can help you achieve this with our online environmental awareness training course. It helps all staff realise the need for environmental awareness and an understanding of the aims of the company.  It can also be completed from the comfort of their home or workplace, at a time of their choosing, meaning that the environmental impact of the delivery of this training course is zero and is an extremely cost effective solution for all employers.
