Overview

This environmental awareness course is ideal for anyone looking to update his or her knowledge on the Environmental Protection Act and current best practice. Polluting the environment can carry penalties and fines far greater than health and safety offences, so being up to date and compliant with current legislation is essential.

Environmental issues such as global warming have meant that more than ever it’s important for companies to educate their workforce on environmental awareness. In addition there are severe penalties for companies who neglect their environmental responsibility. Awareness and compliance can only be achieved if all the workforce are onboard and behind the business. We can help you achieve this with our environmental awareness course. It helps all staff realise the need for environmental awareness and an understanding of the aims of the company.
