Are environmental risks and liabilities affecting your business in any of the following areas?
- Operational issues, including contamination, emissions, waste management and materials management
- Legal issues, including compliance with current and future national and international environmental legislation, liability for clean up of contaminated sites and/or decommissioning of plants, legal action by statutory authorities or third parties and changes in environmental law
- Reputational risks related to the environment, for example, how and where an organisation operates and types of products produced and marketed
- Market and supply chain issues. Pressures on a business may also arise via the supply chain, for example, clients of an organisation might stipulate in contract agreements that certain environmental standards are met
