…which is why we’re here to help you cut complexity across your waste management, material handling, cleaning and hygiene. Helping you keep goods moving, people safe and costs down.
WHAT COULD POOR QUALITY CLEANING, HYGIENE AND WASTE SOLUTIONS BE COSTING YOUR BUSINESS?
Protecting profitability is crucial, but shortcuts and cheap deals can cost warehouse and logistics operations over the long term. Environmental and HSEQ managers must look for savings by choosing durable products, that need replacing less often, whether that’s for waste management and recycling, material handling or cleaning and hygiene.
Almost 3,000 hours of labour are lost every year due to poor productivity practices. Plus, workers take on average 3 sick days every year, which can cost a business with 100 employees around £35,000/year. As 80% of germs are spread by hands, a focus on hygiene is key to reducing the sick days that kill productivity.
With 64% of employees responsible for moving heavy loads at work, the warehouse and HSEQ manager’s role is heavy work, indeed! Although legal requirements are stringent, securing employee compliance can be an uphill struggle. Seeking advice on product solutions to support behavioural change can make all the difference.
More than 80% of warehouse and logistics businesses have goals and targets in place to support environmental programmes. However, 60% state that the cost of providing sustainability solutions, whilst managing the complexity of these solutions, and a lack of human resources to implement them, are serious challenges.
