First looked at EMSs around 5 years ago Way to hard and onerous with little benefit Hard to understand in a business sense
I love audits, look at me I’m 24 years old
Way to hard and onerous with little benefit Hard to understand in a business sense Costly accreditation with lots of audit time
I used to think of a tonne as a ute load!
Thanks to media / political issues -
It would probably be the most one of the most topical issues today
no one needs this Logo competition
Week 1 of the new job. “ Rick we want you to champion this” “ What have you got in place?” “ Nothing we just signed saying we will do it!”
So true for business in the changing economic environment
Or do we keep doing the same thing?
What and where are your competitors up to, locally and internationally
In a maze of information. What a great benefit it is to someone give you your first step!
So make sure you do take that step
Big mistake in maintaining any sort of system
Not that Elmer Fudd ever hit anything!
This would be worth a lot of money in Adelaide at 10 cents a can! Waste price are exscallating
Hang on can we do something that stops this from happening

I am not Einstein I don’t have the time to stay with the problems longer
Asking admin staff for this information - well just be prepared for the response
It took me 9 months in very small time allocations
Its great to drop towards the end of a client meeting
Keep a step ahead
These figures still have me speechless
What a task ahead
But you don’t have to go too far
Its one of my favourite business subjects which relies heavily on effective communication
I still can’t get over the auditor asking me if I need help!
