Intertek Alchemy Launches Environmental Responsibility Training Program

AUSTIN, Texas, Dec. 9, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Intertek Alchemy, a global leader in innovative solutions that help food and manufacturing companies engage with their workforces to drive productivity and safety, today announced its Environmental Responsibility training program. This turnkey solution helps manufacturers build a cohesive culture that is designed to protect the environment, meet regulatory requirements, and increase production efficiency and profit.

Expectations for manufacturing companies to be environmentally sustainable are increasing. 68% of Americans said it is important that companies implement programs to improve the environment*. In addition, environmental sustainability programs can have a significant impact on the bottom line. A recent study by Environment + Energy Leader found that companies who implemented environmental sustainability programs reported $800 million in manufacturing cost savings. Additional earnings in risk reduction, productivity gains, and enhanced growth opportunities added billions in value.

Intertek Alchemy's Environmental Responsibility training program utilizes the company's award-winning engagement techniques to change behaviors and build a culture of responsibility. The multi-faceted program includes group training for frontline workers, deeper eLearning for facilitators, interactive role plays with objection busters, reinforcement materials, and recognition awards to reward engagement.

Building buy-in ensures employees do the right thing every time. Results are easy to track with the program's unique ROI calculators. With this program, companies can optimize the effectiveness of their most impactful element of efficiency and sustainability efforts -- frontline workers.

"Improving environmental responsibility is one of the most important things manufacturers can do today to increase goodwill among employees, customers, and the community while reducing waste and costs at the same time," said Mike Grigsby, president of Intertek Alchemy. "We're extremely proud to offer this industry-leading resource to equip manufacturing leaders and frontline workers with the tools they need to make a difference in the environmental sustainability movement."

Intertek Alchemy's Environmental Responsibility program is out-of-the-box ready and is easy to customize. It also includes tools to share the story of environmental initiatives with customers and the community with provided social media and communication templates.
