The American management guru Peter Drucker once said of staff "If you think trained is expensive, just try ignorant!" Recent surveys have suggested that a staggering eight out of ten companies are unaware of the waste and environmental legislation impacting on their business. Being ignorant of the law is of course no defence against it, and with successful prosecutions by the Environment Agency on the increase, all companies should be sitting up and taking notice. Breaches of the law and pollution incidents can lead to expensive fines, court costs, bad publicity and potential loss of business.

Eco Technology believes that training should be seen as an investment, to ensure that a company remains compliant with existing legislation, meets the requirements of any environmental management system and actively moves towards improvements in working practices.

Eco Technology offers training that is practical, relevant and jargon free. Tailored individually to suit your business, from management through to operator level staff, key areas include legislation, contractor licensing, documentation, ISO14001, EMS, labelling, storage and handling, discharges and spillages, waste minimisation, energy and resource management.

Our UK clients include the Environment Agency, Shell, Unilever, De Puy International, Alstom Power and many others.
