Environmental risks are often seen as outside the core concerns of a business. However, the increasing legislative, financial and community attention highlights the need for every organisation to address environmental exposures.
The first step in minimising risk is to identify and classify the level of risk. From an environmental perspective, this may involve analysis of your business operations, legislation and current public thinking. An environmental audit and assessment of your site is the first critical step in identifying and understanding your risks. This audit will uncover both known and potential risks. Once your risks are understood, strategies for managing these risks can be developed and implemented. Your employees should be provided with environmental awareness training and regular ongoing independent audits of your environmental management system should be conducted. Our Risk Consulting practice can provide environmental risk solutions on a local, national and global basis. |
