Keeping staff and customers safe from legionella will be just one of the subjects covered at Aberdeen and Grampian Chamber of Commerce's May seminar. The programme will also provide advice on identifying, monitoring and implementing water efficiency opportunities, helping delegates to improve water quality, cut consumption and reduce water utility costs.
The ‘Water Compliance: Home and Dry' seminar will take place on Wednesday 20 May 2015 at the AGCC centre on Aberdeen Energy Park. It will be delivered by a team of experts from three of the UK's leading water management and sustainability companies: Green Compliance, Minimise Solutions and Minimise Group. All three are part of the Minimise Group of sustainability companies.
Seminar booking details are available on www.agcc.co.uk.
For those with an on-site water tank, Graham Maze, Country Manager - Scotland, from Green Compliance Water Division, will provide advice on how to complete a legally compliant legionella risk assessment. He will also update delegates on their legal obligations to staff, customers, visitors and the public with regard to water used within everyday activities.
Areas covered will includeadvice on how to instigate written risk assessments, control systems and record keeping. Graham will also provide guidance on what is reasonably practicable and the steps that organisations need to take to ensure legal compliance.
Jason Plent,Managing Director of Minimise Solutions, andMike Kennedy,Group Director, Sales Operations, Minimise Group, will explain how organisations can improve water efficiency. With new regulations on the horizon, water is widely identified as the utility which will see the largest increase in cost over the next 20 years; it is therefore essential that businesses take steps to limit these price rises by improving performance while remaining compliant.
This session will provide advice on what organisations can do now - and what they should prepare to instigate in the coming years.
Water monitoring and big data analysis will also be covered, showing delegates how benchmarking current use can identify immediate and continuous efficiency programmes and unlock sustainability funding packages.
The team will explain how effective monitoring must be carried out at a granular level to provide useable data - and how the reporting parameters and analysis dashboard should be tailored to the organisation to support a move to more sustainable and cost efficient operating.
For delegates from the hospitality sector, the seminar will provide an early opportunity to discuss the new technologies which the Minimise Group has to reduce both water and energy consumption, especially in bathrooms and toilet facilities.
