In addition to this, Mr Paul Baker (MD), has been shortlisted for the ‘Entrepreneur of the Year' award.

Bakers Waste have worked hard over the years to really make a difference and feel particularly proud that we have been shortlisted in the ‘Contribution to the Local Community' and ‘Business of the Year' awards. The staff are very passionate about the company and this has been the main reason why we are so successful at what we do. We feel these nominations only highlights how we work to make a difference which goes deeper than simply making financial contributions.

BSI ACP Environmental Consultants

Bakers Waste are now members of the British Standards Institution's "Associate Consultants Programme" for Environmental Management.

Pressures, financial and otherwise, are growing on businesses to reduce their environmental impact and an Environmental Management System (EMS) provides a company with a framework for managing environmental responsibilities efficiently and in a way that is integrated into your overall operations. As an BSI ACP member, Bakers Waste Services have demonstrated to the BSI their experience and expertise with respect to providing the training necessary for developing such an environmental management system.

With ISO 14001 environmental management systems training, you can identify aspects of your business that impact on the environment and understand those environmental laws that are relevant to your situation. The next step in the training is to produce objectives for improvement and a management programme to achieve them, with regular reviews for continual improvement. With our training, your organisation will then be well placed to ensure compliance and also improve operational efficiencies.

Please call Hayley on 0370 350 6 350 to discuss how we can help you develop your environmental management strategy.
