OVERVIEW

About this course.

This course raises awareness of environmental issues and the practical steps you can take to work in a more environmentally sustainable way. Everyday choices — about energy, travel, water, waste and shopping — all affect the environment, and small changes by many people add up to a real difference.

The course explains what the environment is and why it matters, the key environmental issues such as climate change, pollution, resource depletion and waste, the waste hierarchy and the legal duty of care for waste, how organisations manage their impact through an Environmental Management System, and the practical actions you can take to reduce your impact.

COURSE DETAILS

Who it’s for, and the law behind it.

Employees and managers in any UK workplace who want to reduce the environmental impact of day-to-day work — waste, energy, water and pollution — and understand their part in the organisation's environmental duties.

UK businesses have a legal duty of care for the waste they produce under the Environmental Protection Act 1990 — it must be stored, transferred and disposed of correctly. This course explains that duty in plain language, alongside practical ways to cut waste, energy use and pollution at work.
