From the management of waste, noise and dust to assessing the ecological impact of your operations on wildlife and nature, your responsibilities have never been greater. Plus, the impact of your business activities on employees means significant potential liability for your organisation. Then there is the problem of dealing with inherited industrial issues. For example, asbestos remains one the most emotive topics in health and safety. Once known as ‘the wonder fibre’, the asbestos industry has left a significant legacy, with over 3,000 different products containing asbestos in the UK. Plus, according to the Health and Safety Executive (HSE), 1.6 million commercial properties are thought to contain asbestos. In short, to manage the ever-increasing environmental issues you face, you need wide-ranging support and expertise.
