Environmental Management Policy Seminar

June Fri 29th 2012

We are running a FREE one day course designed to not only get you up to speed with important government legislation on environmental impact management for small business but also designed to give your organisation a really useful toolset to help enhance and develop your business.

For small and medium sized enterprises getting access to large company or public sector supply chains involves the costly route of buying into BS8555 or ISO2001:14001, however if you have an Environmental Management Policy (EMP) and evidenced actions, this will actually enable your company to apply for the bigger contracts and jobs you thought previously unattainable.

Time: 09:30- 16.30
Venue: High House Production Park, Purfleet
