Hello everyone:
I am currently developing an Environmental Policy that will outline the agency's recognition of the importance of a healthy environment, as well as a committment to be an environmentally responsible organization. This policy will likely include supporting documentation/procedures to detail how the Health Unit can achieve this - both in the short and long term. I would welcome information on what other organisations have in place regarding environmental policy, as well as any stories on its success or failure when implemented.
Thanks for the feedback!
Maria
