Duty of Care
Duty of Care legislation affects every business in the UK who produces, handles or controls waste. Do you manage or handle waste; control or influence how others manage waste? Are you making best use of your waste in line with the waste hierarchy? Can you be confident that your business is fulfilling its obligations? This course provides practical up-to-date advice on the legislation and how to comply with the regulations in conjunction with the anticipated new code of practice.
