With constantly changing legislation and increases in fines, it is sometimes difficult to be sure you’re remaining compliant. Groundwork’s Legislation Update Service offers you a simple and easy way to stay up to date, giving you the confidence that you won’t miss a vital piece of law that affects your business.
Every month we read over 30,000 words of environmental regulations, Directives and Orders and translate them into plain English. We then update you with the parts that are relevant to your company.
If you have an environmental management system like ISO 14001, BS8555 or EMAS, the Legislation Update Service will also provide you with a simple tool to create a bespoke online legal register to help demonstrate your compliance to regulatory requirements.
Benefits
- Saves you time – there’s no need to wade through monthly updates of environmental regulations to find the ones relevant to you. We do this for you, and we then translate them into plain English so you don’t have to waste time trying to understand them.
- Saves you money – not only do our monthly updates save you time (which means money) but we charge for them per site and not per user. This means that all employees at your site can have access to important information without costing you extra.
- Makes life easier for you – the Legislation Update Service is easy to use, implement, integrate into existing management systems and access remotely.
- Contributes to your corporate social responsibility – by choosing the Groundwork Legislation Update Service, you will be supporting a leading UK environmental regeneration charity.
- Helps you manage multi-sites – you can manage the whole of your multi-site company from one location.
- Helps your staff to share knowledge – the Legislation Update Service links up your sites and provides your staff with the facility to share best practice. The legal register allows users to add comments that may benefit other users e.g. how a certain piece of legislation is particularly relevant to the company or a novel approach to dealing with the legislation etc.
