Is your business still environmentally Compliant?
1 October 2020
Are you aware that there are over 300 UK pieces of environmental legislation that business must adhere to?
Whether you operate a small office or a large manufacturing site, you still have a responsibility to manage your risks and comply with legislation associated to your site’s processes and activities.
Fines are now unlimited and clean-up costs can be even more costly. Recently, a well known food and drink company were fined £140,000 and had to pay £500,000 in clean-up costs after diesel escaped their site and polluted a nearby watercourse.
