Corporate Social Responsibility

It is estimated that the UK economy will have to pay up to £455 million per annum to comply with the WEEE Directive following its introduction as UK Law on 2nd January 2007. Most leading companies have well established Environmental and Corporate Social Responsibility policies in place. They have already assessed their positions and are implementing the relevant changes to ensure their WEEE policy follows suit

Producer Compliance Schemes need to ensure that they provide members with a service that matches their other environmental policies; Northern Compliance Ltd will bring added value through environmentally sustainable, socially responsible and cost effective WEEE Care & Compliance solutions for B2B producers via its WEEE Membership Services. As well as benefiting from a cost effective service, its members will reap marketing benefits and supply chain improvements.
The key issue is still one of corporate social responsibility, an issue organisations cannot afford to ignore. Northern Compliance Limited’s WEEE disposal contractor’s

innovative service is recognised as the default answer for WEEE recycling. It has already established 3rd Party DCF’s at some 75 blue chip companies, including the Wilton Centre on Teesside (one of the largest Research and Development sites in Europe). For the Wilton Centre, they have designed and implemented a purpose built WEEE collection facility, which provides the centre’s many blue chip members with the opportunity to comply with responsible WEEE disposal. The service has already been nominated for a prestigious environmental award in 2007.
