Hands
& Associates, Inc. has conducted two breakfast seminars on recordkeeping
for air permits. These breakfast seminars were designed to provide
a one-hour informative session on environmental and/or safety issues.
Hands & Associates, Inc. provided the opportunity to learn about
environmental and safety management tools that, once implemented,
are proven to improve current environmental and safety management
systems.
The content of the survey included basic questions regarding a
facility's current recordkeeping system and the perceived value of
implementing Hands & Associates' EMS and/or Safety recordkeeping
system, File-Logic™. The File-Logic™ "Tool" provides a
structured, organized and innovative method of storing valuable
documents, data and compliance related information. If used as a
process, File-Logic™ is a simple, effective and affordable way that is
proven to increase a company’s level of control over environmental and
safety issues.
The purpose of the survey was to obtain an industry overview of
current recordkeeping systems, the interest in improvement, and the
value of having a system that has been proven to work. Our survey result
reveled that 80% of those facilities that have implemented File-Logic
would rate their recordkeeping system as being ‘good’. Of the
facilities not using File-Logic, 75% rated their current recordkeeping
system as 'poor' or 'needs improvement'. The survey also showed, 100% in
attendance believed that File-Logic would be a productive tool at their
facility. Members in attendance at the seminars were individuals within
a manufacturing plant that are responsible for meeting the requirements
of many different environmental and safety regulations. Therefore, as an
overall summary of our survey, when the industry was asked how to
provide proof of environmental compliance, survey says,….."Recordkeeping"!
