Water related risks revolve around business water use and community perception. The impact varies subject to an organisation’s level of public exposure and social licence to operate.
The One2Five Water diagnostic management tool addresses strategic business management issues with relation to water. Energetics’ diagnostic tool identifies areas of strengths and others requiring improvement on a range of water issues including water efficiency, alternative water sources and business engagement. The environmental profile of an organisation and its compliance with regulations is often determined by how well it manages water.
Reducing costs and mitigating your risk
Water can be a significant expense in terms of water supply, disposal, product loss and site infrastructure. In recognition of these pressures, organisations are increasingly strengthening their policies and risk management programs for resource management. Improving the management of resources such as water can deliver significant bottom line savings and minimise your risk exposure.
Achieving water savings
As a diagnostic tool, One2Five® Water is designed to help organisations in establishing effective processes for managing water and achieving significant and sustainable savings in water use, and wastewater generation. Based on an internationally recognised star rating system, One2Five® Water encourages businesses to continuously improve their practices and strive for higher levels of achievement.
Instilling consumer confidence
As a visual indicator of an organisation’s level of environmental excellence, the star rating enables businesses to raise their credentials and demonstrate to consumers and stakeholders that they are acting responsibly.
