This service is specially tailored to the needs of businesses with less than 50 employees. Our free, confidential on-site visit and implementation support package will identify opportunities for resource efficiency improvements and cost savings within your company.
The Envirowise Small Business Support Programme has been devised in recognition that, without intensive support, many small businesses do not have the resources to improve their environmental performance to the extent required to mitigate adverse environmental change.
The programme will provide flexible, client-led, practical support to small businesses, aimed at the implementation of cost saving environmental improvements. On-site support will primarily focus on opportunities to reduce waste production, packaging, raw material and water use. Other areas covered as part of the on-site review include energy efficiency and waste management, and for businesses in the tourism sector, assistance towards Green Tourism Business Scheme accreditation.
You will receive a detailed report highlighting opportunities for efficiency savings. Supplementary information may include; technical guidance, supplier contact details, legislation pertaining to the site, sources of further assistance and funding. After you have received your report, a dedicated advisor will be available to provide implementation support advice if required.
