According to
figures published by the government’s Environment and Energy office,
waste in UK companies accounts for between 4 and 10 percent of turnover.
That means that you could increase your profits simply by reducing your
waste.
Waste costs
are not only the costs related to disposal of waste, but also those
related to inefficient use of raw materials, energy and water, discarded
products, and wasted labour.
Implementing
no-cost or low-cost initiatives could not only improve your bottom line,
but also improve your company image both externally, in the eyes of your
suppliers, competitors and customers, but internally, with your own
staff.
A
systematic approach, following a six stage process, can help you
identify areas needing attention, plan and implement improvements,
evaluate the effect of the improvements and maintain and improve on
performance.
With average
paybacks of months, not years, waste minimisation is one area you
probably can’t afford not to invest in.
