Businesses Urged To Complete Environmental Benchmarking Survey

Businesses across Northern Ireland are being encouraged to complete the NI Environmental Benchmarking Survey 2017.

The survey benchmarks organisations against both their sector peers and leading Northern Ireland organisations, on the basis of their environmental management and performance in key areas.

The survey is a voluntary exercise which helps organisations identify environmental impacts, measure progress, drive improvement and raise awareness of the environment as an important, strategic and competitive issue at board level.

The survey is aimed at all organisations in Northern Ireland, small and large, regardless of whether or not they have a certified Environmental Management System (EMS). The deadline for entries is Friday 30 June 2017.
